III. HARDWARE DESIGN


A. Pressure Sensor
In order to sense the pressure of the arm cuff, it is used
pressure sensor MPX5050GP as pressure transducer which is
the most important for the design of digital health band. When
pressure is applied to the pressure cuff a voltage is the output
which is the proportional to the input pressure. One side of the
pressure sensor is connected to the pressure cuff and data pins
are connected to the microcontroller of the Arduino Uno. So the
difference between the pressure of the arm cuff and room air
pressure is directly proportional to the output voltage [8].

B. Filter Design
In our model we designed a band pass filter where we have
been used an operational amplifier (op-amp) as LM324. We
have also required some resistors and capacitors to make the Fig. 5 First Band Pass Filter Design
filter. We designed an equation for calculating the frequency of
the filter as well as to calculate the gain of the band pass filter. First Band-pass filter:
