ABSTRACT
In this research and development project, we used the general microprocessor as a core to constitute the animal cardiac pacemaker in vitro. Control of the pacemaker's settings was carried out by transmitting parameters through a serial communication interface. Finally, our pacemaker reaches a satisfying test result in activating the cardiac outer membrane of the rabbits. Full digital pacemaker has high precision, good stability, and has an intuitive way to set parameters. Owing to its smaller size, lower cost, and easier mass production, the digital pacemaker is a good candidate to replace costly medical pacemakers for activating the animal's heart.
