A mixing frequency excitation current source is designed according to the analysis of requirements of the bioelectric impedance measuring system. Frequency and amplitude of the current source can be controlled with high precision. A characteristic of modularization makes it easy to be embedded in other systems. As configure information is stored in EEPROM, the current source is configured automatically when electrified. According to instructions and data from PC, the current source can produce scanning frequency signal that is mixing frequency signal and contains different frequency elements. The corresponding hardware design and control flow of software are brought forward.
