Hi all, im currently doing some research and i was wondering does anybody have good circuit schematics of an Automated external defibrillator with a full description of circuitry

Welcome to AAC!
Are you planning to make one, or is this just for your education? For such a life-critical device a home-brew version seems inappropriate.

You mean you have never seen the "Wah-wah" effect pedal on an AED? :D

Surely this person isn't asking for someone to explain to what seems to be a layman the complete workings/functional breakdown of a complex schematic are they?
I was just asking for some insight

Yeah. This is definitely not the place for DIY if it needs to be functional.

But how exactly do you need to stimulate the heart? What kind of pulse would be required? That would certainly help in designing a circuit.
