ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for providing a substantially real-time representation of an analog representation of a physiological signal is provided. The waveform signal from the sensor is converted into digital form. A delta-sigma modulator is used as a simple Digital-to-analog Converter (DAC). The output can then be provided through a simple hardware filter to give an analog output signal in nearly real-time, which can be used for other instruments, synchronization, display, etc.
