INFUSION PUMP BACKGROUND

Infusion Pumps are used to control medicine and uids delivered to patients. An Infusion pump usually includes a uid reservoir, an electro
mechanical assemble for controlling uid ow and catheter system for transferring uids to the patient. Accurate ow control is critical. PSoC
interfaces with sensors in the infusions pump to monitor parameters like pressure or force (uid ow), temperature, air in-line and provide
outputs to control uid metering through a valve or motor and to identify an alarm condition. PSoC product solutions can also provide direct
LCD drive and control, key pad or touch screen interface, power management and USB or RS-232 communication.

AN57821 - PSoC 3, PSoC 4, and PSoC 5LP Mixed Signal Circuit Board Layout Considerations
AN57821 introduces basic PCB layout practices to achieve 12- to 20-bit performance for the PSoC 3, PSoC 4, and PSoC 5LP families of
devices.
AN58304 - PSoC 3 and PSoC 5LP Pin Selection for Analog Designs
AN58304 provides an overview of the analog routing matrix in PSoC 3 and PSoC 5LP.
AN58827 - PSoC 3 and PSoC 5LP Internal Analog Routing Considerations
AN58827 discusses how internal trace and switch resistance can affect the performance of a design and how these issues can be avoided by

understanding a few basic details about the PSoC 3 and PSoC 5LP internal analog architecture.
AN60305 - Using PSoC 3 and PSoC 5LP IDACs to build a better VDAC
This application note describes how to congure the PSoC 3 and PSoC 5LP IDACs as a exible analog source. It presents different
approaches for using the IDACs in applications, and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of the topologies presented.
AN60590 - PSoC 3, PSoC 4, and PSoC 5LP Temperature Measurement with a Diode
AN60590 explains diode-based temperature measurement using PSoC 3, PSoC 4, and PSoC 5LP.
AN64275 - PSoC 3 and PSoC 5LP: Getting More Resolution from 8-Bit DACs
AN64275 discusses several methods to increase the resolution of the DACs available in the PSoC 3 and PSoC 5LP families. These methods
can be used to extend the resolution up to 12 bits. An example application is supplied to demonstrate most of these concepts. A library is
also included that implements three of the methods as PSoC Creator components.
