MyoWare 2.0 Muscle Sensor

MyoWare 2.0 Muscle Sensor — Adafruit — 6423

Surface EMG sensor board that amplifies and rectifies electrical signals from muscle contractions into a single analogue output voltage. Snap-on electrode connections; output scales with muscle activation level.

  • VIN1

    Input Voltage (VIN), primary pin 1 in the MyoWare v2 advanced guide; powers the sensor.

    Type · PowerVoltage · +2.27V minimum, typically +3.3V to +5V, +5.47V maximum
  • GND2

    Ground (GND), primary pin 2 in the MyoWare v2 advanced guide.

    Type · GroundVoltage · 0V reference
  • ENV3

    Envelope (ENV) output, primary pin 3; Adafruit states the sensor outputs a 0-VIN signal representing muscle flex and the guide labels this as EMG envelope output.

    Type · SignalVoltage · Output signal range 0-VIN volts, where VIN is the power-source voltage
  • RECT4

    Rectified (RECT) output, optional pin 4 in the MyoWare v2 advanced guide.

    Type · Signal
  • RAW5

    Raw (RAW) output, optional pin 5 in the MyoWare v2 advanced guide.

    Type · Signal
  • MID6

    Mid-muscle (MID) electrode, optional pin 6 and snap socket G in the MyoWare v2 advanced guide.

    Type · Unknown
  • END7

    End-muscle (END) electrode, optional pin 7 and snap socket H in the MyoWare v2 advanced guide.

    Type · Unknown
  • REF8

    Reference (REF) electrode, optional pin 8; the guide also identifies reference electrode port E and snap socket F.
