Original Abstract Submitted

An example wearable electronic device includes a compute core with a skin contact surface and a cavity region that houses: a battery, an electrode located at the skin contact surface configured to sense neuromuscular signals, an analog front end (AFE) configured to partially process the sensed neuromuscular signals into partially processed neuromuscular signals, a printed circuit board (PCB), and a metallic base plate (MBP). The PCB receives the partially-processed neuromuscular signals and determines gestures based on the partially processed neuromuscular signals. The MBP provides an electrical ground for the electrode and electrically shields the electrode from electrical and magnetic noise that is generated at least partially from at least one of the PCB and the battery. The AFE is placed on a first side of the MBP and the PCB is placed on a second side that is opposite to the first side of the MBP.
