MAX30100 Pulse Oximeter & Heart Rate Sensor Module is an all-in-one optical module that integrates a pulse oximeter and heart rate sensor in a compact form factor. Designed for wearable devices and health monitoring projects, it accurately measures SpO₂ and heart rate using photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors and built-in LEDs.
Key Features:
- Dual Function: Combines pulse oximetry (SpO₂) and heart rate measurement in one module.
- Compact & Integrated: Built-in IR and red LEDs plus a photodetector.
- I²C Interface: Simple two-wire data interface (SDA, SCL).
- Low Power Design: Efficient operation—ideal for battery-powered and wearable projects.
- Onboard IR Compensation: Includes ambient light cancellation for cleaner signal.
Technical Specifications:
- Supply Voltage: 1.8V to 3.3V (commonly 3.3V)
- Current Consumption: ~600 µA in active mode
- Measurement Range: 0–100% SpO₂; capable of detecting heart rates from 30 bpm to 240 bpm
- Sampling Rate: Up to 100 Hz
- I²C Speed: Up to 400 kHz
- Resolution: 16-bit ADC for both LEDs
Mechanical Specifications:
- Board Material: FR4 PCB with gold-plated pads
- LED & Sensor Encapsulation: Epoxy over LEDs and photodiode
- Mounting: Through-hole module—solder onto development boards
