Conclusion
1. Parallel automatic gain control is required for the R and IR signals in dual-wavelength photometric pulse oxyhemometers.
2. Multiplying digital-to-analog converters are suitable executive elements for maintaining identical instantaneous values of the gain of the R and IR channels.
3. The optimal frequency of the clock generator of the AGC of pulse oxyhemometers is about 1/4 Hz.
