How to invert the ppg signal

Open ajmalazees opened this issue 6 years ago • 4 comments

The ppg signal obtained through this code is an inverted graph nah? therefore i want to invert the ppg signal t get the proper output for my project. Also my project is to calculate hemoglobin concentration, how can i modify the above code to calculate hemoglobin concentration.

I want to get the ppg signal as below

I have the same concern. Is there a reason why the PPG signal is inverted?

Hi niv22,

The signal from afe4490 comes by default as "inverted from other ppg publications". It is mentioned in the datasheet on page 82. There is no option given in the afe4490 to invert the signal directly from the chip but you can use some software techniques to invert the signal if it is required.
