Several studios have determined the importance of electromiography (EMG) in the detection of movement and muscle related disorders. To the present, superficial electromyography (sEMG) is used as a rehabilitation and detection tool in muscle-related problems such as dystonia, muscle fatigue, tremors, among many others. However, currently most of the traditional and clinical equipments used in clinics are non portable and expensive. As a consequence, some companies and laboratories develop in-house electromyography sensors. The main purpose of this study is to present preliminary analysis of components and stages involved in the analog conditioning circuit of a in-house developed sensor through experimental and debugging tests using electronic and digital measurement devices.
