ii ABSTRACT DESIGN OF PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD (PCB) AND POWER SUPPLY FOR PORTABLE 6-LEAD ELECTROCARDIOGRAM (ECG) By Ervan Herkusuma NIM: 13218052 (Bachelor’s Program in Electrical Engineering) Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) is currently the highest death contributor due to Non-Communicable Diseases at 35% of total deaths in Indonesia. These numbers will continue to rise by 2030, and the Indonesia Ministry of Health stated that we need to take preventive action in the form of early detection of CVD and monitoring for patients currently in care. In this situation, early detection and monitoring could only be done virtually. Telemedicine has been one of the emerging health technologies in recent years because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Telemedicine with an online consulting method stands out as a solution for this emerging problem. However, telemedicine lacks the ability to acquire physical data from its patient. Due to the lack of data acquisition for cardiovascular disease to support online consulting, a portable 6-lead ECG device is proposed as a solution. The patient should operate the device to provide accurate heart activity data on their own. The portable design should have an independent power source with all the components available. The power supply module consists of GeekCreit Adjustable Step Up 18650 Integrated Module and two 3.7 V lithium-ion 18650 parallel batteries with a 1500 mAh capacity for each battery. This allows the module to be rechargeable and has enough power to support the device for a minimum of 28.9 hours of usage. These components are mounted on a PCB to achieve a portable form. The device’s final weight is 416.086 grams or 0.416 kg and has a dimension of 12.1 cm × 12.1 cm × 6.61 cm. The PCB and power supply module design can support portable 6-lead ECG as a proposed solution.
