    Objective: An ambulatory electrocardiograph, better known as a Holter recorder, is a powerful tool in fighting heart disease. A Holter recorder provides long term monitoring of the electrical activity of the heart, helping physicians treat heart disease. Advances in integrated circuitry and inexpensive memory cards present an opportunity to design a low cost Holter recorder. The objective of this project is to design, build, and test software and hardware for a low cost Holter recorder.
    Methodology: A specifications list was generated that meets the requirements of long term ECG monitoring. The specifications reflect the "Ambulatory electrocardiograph" standard developed by the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI). The Holter recorder design was broken down into modules to simplify the design process. Each module was developed independently and then integrated to complete the design. Design alternatives were selected based on how well they met design specifications.
    Major Findings: The prototype Holter recorder was constructed and tested against the specifications list and was found to meet all its design goals with the exception of the compression ratio specification. The project has shown that a low cost Holter recorder is possible. The use of a high integration microcontroller was the major contributor in the achievement of this goal. The microcontroller reduced part count, size, power consumption, cost, and greatly simplified the design.
