EEG Specific Features

This section describes some of the EEG specific features supported by the EVM, including the

reference/patient bias signals, lead off detection and calibration.

7.1

Reference Signal and Patient Bias Signal

A typical EEG system has multiple electrodes (32 up to 256, hereby called as the “normal electrodes”)

connected to the scalp that are used to acquire EEG signals. In addition to these electrode signals, an

EEG system also uses two additional signals, a reference signal and a patient bias signal. The reference

signal is used as the reference for the single ended EEG measurements. The patient bias signal is used

for biasing the patient to set the common mode of the EEG signals (typically mid supply).

Dedicated reference and patient bias electrodes

Many EEG systems have two dedicated electrodes, one used as the reference signal for the EEG

measurement (hereby called as the “reference electrode”) and the other used for the patient bias signal

(hereby called as the “bias electrode”). The EVM has two signals (BIAS_ELEC, REF_ELEC) available at

the connector JP81 that correspond to these two electrodes. The BIAS_DRV signal is similar to the

BIAS_ELEC, but appears as a separate signal at JP80. In future versions of the EVM, BIAS_DRV will be

multiplexed through a jumper to BIAS_ELEC.

Programmable reference and patient bias electrodes

Certain EEG systems provide the flexibility to be able to route the reference and/or the patient bias signals

through any of the normal electrodes.

The internal multiplexer of the ADS1299 provides ample flexibility for

(a) Choosing the voltage applied to these electrodes (Fixed or closed loop),

(b) Being able to route the reference and patient bias signals to either the dedicated electrode or any other

normal electrode.

7.1.1

Using the Dedicated Reference and Patient Bias Electrodes

This is the simplest option for electrode connection and is illustrated in . One dedicated electrode is

chosen as a bias electrode and a potential is applied to it to bias the patient at about mid-supply voltage.

Similarly a fixed electrode is chosen as the reference electrode and all the other electrodes are measured

with respect to this electrode. Below we discuss different options available on the EVM board to connect

the bias electrode BIAS_ELEC/BIAS_DRV and reference electrode REF_ELEC.
