16. IMULATION Like the ECG circuit the IBP circuit is separately isolated Also like the ECG circuit there is no specific isolation power supply In the case of the IBP the supply is derived from the excitation voltage supplied by the monitor to the transducer For most monitors the excitation voltage is a 5V DC signal however some monitors use an AC excitation or a pulsed DC excitation Support for these adds some complexity to this circuit The excitation voltage comes in via J2 pin 1 It is buffered by R56 and peak captured by D1 and C27 forming a positive DC supply This positive supply voltage is fed to the DAC U11 and OpAmp U30 and also to a charge pump inverter U20 The charge pump inverter generates a negative supply voltage which is also used by the DAC and OpAmp The DAC U11 is controlled by the microcontroller via the SPI bus signals which are isolated by U16 The digitally programmed values are multiplied by the reference voltage which is the excitation voltage and presented as a current to U30 which transforms them to a negative voltage So the signal at TP1 represents the desired BP value multiplied by the excitation voltage signal and inverted This signal is scaled down and biased to 1 2 of the excitation voltage by the output resistor network and fed to the negative transducer signal output J2 pin 6 The positive transducer signal output J2 pin 3 is tied to 1 2 the excitation voltage The negative excitation voltage
