Any example of how to use the MAX30100 in PBP?
I am collaborating with a maker group (https://sites.google.com/a/educ.ar/eti/project-updates/proyectopvpv12opensourcecovid-19) that works on the COVID-19 issue, and we are needing to put together a tool for the doctors (oximeter) that allows them to see the saturation of the blood.
Can someone guide me? the idea is to work it with some low-end pic (16f627 / 628/88, etc etc) thanks

Algun ejemplo de como usar en PBP el MAX30100?
Estoy colaborando con un grupo de maker que trabaja con el tema del COVID-19 , y estamos necesitando armar una herrmienta para los medicos (oximetro) que les permita ver la saturacion de la sangre.
Alguien me podra orientar? la idea es trabajarlo con algun pic de gama baja (16f627/628/88,etc etc) gracias

I think it is more cost preferable to buy a ready made device (I did):

Good morning and thanks for responding ... In the midst of this crisis, your recommendation is complex. We specifically need to add that sensor to our project.

I though you needed a stand alone device.

But if you need to make other machine is different matter.

The data sheet has all the info and I had a look. There are registers that need to be set and then others to read back. The chip even controls the current of the two LED's. Is not that simple I am afraid.

exactly that's it; I did not find any topic as a guide, therefore I assume it is complex.

a quick look at an arduino lib for your chip reveals a fair bit of fp math and 32 bit variables too, all this done at 100hz sample rate.
its a tall order for those low spec pic chips mentioned
