    4.block Diagram of Internal Pacemaker

    The block diagram shows the components of an internal pacemaker that stimulate the heart, including a timing circuit, pulse generator, and three RC networks that determine the pacing rate, pulse width, and maximum rate of 120 pulses per minute. The pacemaker also has circuits that sense battery depletion and signal a rate slowdown and energy compensation to maintain stimulation as the battery decreases in voltage.

    Block Diagram of Internal Pacemaker

    To Heart
    Internal Pacemaker
    • The timing circuit is a RC network
    • A reference voltage source
    • Comparator determines the basic pacing rate of pulse generator
    • Its output feeds into a second RC Network
    • The pulse width circuit determines the pulse duration
    • The third RC Network is the rate limiting circuit
    • Which disables the comparator for a preset interval
    • And limits the rate to a maximum of 120 pulses per minute
    • The output circuit provides a voltage pulse to stimulate the heart
    • The voltage monitor circuit senses the cell depletion and
    1. signals the rate slowdown circuit to produce 8 ± 3 BPM &
    2. Energy compensation circuit to increase the pulse duration as
    battery voltage decreases
    • To maintain nearly constant stimulation energy to the heart
    Internal Pacemaker
    • There is a feedback loop from output circuit to refractory circuit
    • Which provides a period of time (refractory )
    • The amplifier will not respond to output signals
    • The sensing circuit detects a R – wave and resets the oscillator
    timing capacitor
    • The reversion circuit allows the amplifier to detect a R-wave
    • In the absence of R-wave
    • The circuit allows the oscillator to pace at its reset rate ± 1BPM
