HL8030 (body fat meter)

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

HL8030 is a mixed mode integrated circuit used to measure the impedance of an object. The sensor is formed by four probes which can be composes of two pairs metal plates. By contact with an object the impedance between the probes can be measured. The circuit composes of analog circuit, digital circuit and digital signal processor. Besides to measure the impedance, the noise caused by RF interference can be eliminated by the system. The output of the system consists of two pins, DATA and CLOCK. The output format is a synchronous data output which consists of 11 data bits, an error bit and an over-range bit. By built-in open circuit detector, there is not data output when circuit is open loop. There is an input pin to enable the system, and the standby current is zero in disable state. There are two measurement ranges, standard and programmable. In standard mode the parameters is set in the IC. In programmable mode, the parameters must input from IC input pin.
