Description:
Single LM324 quad operational amplifier using all 4 amps: (1) virtual ground, (2) preamplifier, (3) lowpass filter, (4) final amplifier and second lowpass filter. It doubles as a pulse oximeter (near rail-to-rail swing at 12V and 5V) with a phototransistor, and an ECG (about 0.5 V output).
