Programming SX chip to reconize irregular beats

I am trying to use an SX chip to light up an LED when an irregular beat is played like a normal heartbeat to a faster heartbeat.·


If anyone has any tips on how to program the Sx chp to do this please reply

    Programming the SX will be the easy part... it sounds like you need help with developing a suitable algorithm. I'd say the first step is to define how the heart beat will be measured (i.e. the SX's inputs) and what constitutes a regular heartbeat. From there you can write an algorithm to recognize a "normal" beat, and then subsequent algorithms to recognize different types of abnormalities.

    Is pulse count the only thing you're concerned with, or are you looking for something more like a full P, QRS, T analysis?

    Like a "missing pulse" detector?·

    Or·a "double-pulse" detector?
