MAX30102 PPG

The MAX30102 PPG is an I²C device in the LabWired part catalog. Its catalog type is max30102. It connects to the MCU over I²C at the default address 0x57. The catalog gives a supply range of 1.7–3.6 V. It has 4 pins. A registered peripheral model runs in the engine: the firmware talks to it over the real bus and gets device-accurate responses.

How to simulate the MAX30102 PPG in LabWired

  1. Open the Playground at app.labwired.com and place an MCU board.
  2. Add the MAX30102 PPG (catalog type max30102).
  3. Connect VCC and GND to the supply and ground of the board. Use a supply inside the catalog range of 1.7–3.6 V.
  4. Connect SDA and SCL to the I²C data and clock pins of the board.
  5. Run the firmware. It finds the part on the I²C bus at 0x57 and reads and writes it as on hardware.
