Are BITalino sensor compatible with Arduino?

Yes, BITalino sensors can be easily interfaced with third-party platforms such as the popular Arduino. To use our UC-E6 Sensors with an Arduino you must acquire an Arduino Sensor Cable (Datasheet)

Here’s a project that uses a BITalino ECG sensor and an Arduino to drive a heartbeat-controlled fading LED.
The step-by-step tutorial is available online at:

Depending on what you’re trying to achieve there are several ways to interface your BITalino with an Arduino or derived platforms.
Check out the hardware reference of each BITalino block, available under “General Description” here.


Another option is to connect the analog output of the sensors to analog input ports on the Arduino board:

Note also that BITalino has its own MCU block, purpose-built to cope with the requirements of biosignals.
