System design and research of multi-channel electroacupuncture instrument

Abstract This paper introduces the development history, working principle, curative effect under different output waveforms and the hardware and software design of the system. The proportional constant current output circuit is analyzed in detail. A system structure of electroacupuncture instrument based on modular design is proposed. The system structure mainly includes multi-channel electroacupuncture control module and display control module, which are connected through CAN bus. Multi-channel electroneedle control module adopts embedded processor and real-time operating system design, display control module is application level processor, running embedded Linux system design. The system has reasonable structure design and high expansibility, which is convenient for further research.
