Abstract
The bioelectrical impedance measuring apparatus according to the present invention employs a microcomputer having almost all the functions necessary for the measurement of bioelectrical impedance integrated into a circuit on a one-chip. Further, the bioelectrical impedance measuring apparatus of the present invention employs also the one-chip microcomputer to provide almost all the functions necessary for the measurement at a plurality of frequencies or for that using a plurality of electrodes. Yet further, the bioelectrical impedance measuring apparatus of the present invention employs also the one-chip microcomputer to provide almost all the functions necessary for the measurement of other parameters, adding to those for measuring the bioelectrical impedance, using the external sensor connected thereto.
