32-channel EEG ADC with Cortex-M7 ----FreeEEG32

What is FreeEEG32?

FreeEEG32 is a stackable, open source 32-channel (4 ADCs x 8 channels ea.), 24-bit, sigma-delta, simultaneous sampling board meant to satisfy scientists and hackers who want research-grade equipment without breaking the bank. NeuroIDSS has been developing this EEG for several years now as the definitive open source answer to expensive, proprietary EEG technology.

The FreeEEG32 mixes four AD7771 ADCs with ultra-low noise sources and references (<0.22 μV measured) and a powerful STM32H7 ARM Cortex-M7-based chipset to drive them and perform pre-processing. This is sensitive enough for high-quality EEG data acquisition and much, much more.

Board stacking for 64-256 channels or more makes FreeEEG32 the most affordable high density EEG system on the market. Stacking is done vertically in order to maximize stability and accessibility.

FreeEEG32 is part of an ongoing scientific project to probe working memory in the brain and measure theta and gamma correlations with memory encoding. It is available under the Affero-General Public License (AGPL).
