This paper presents a general framework to derive the weakly nonlinear stability near a Hopf bifurcation in a special class of multi-scale reaction-diffusion equations. The main focus is on how the linearity and nonlinearity of the fast variables in system influence the emergence of the breathing pulses when the slow variables are linear and the bifurcation parameter is around the Hopf bifurcation point. By applying the matching principle to the fast and slow changing quantities and using the relevant theory of singular perturbation, we obtain explicit expressions for the stationary pulses. Then, the normal form theory and the center manifold theory are applied to give Hopf normal form expressions. Finally, one of these expressions is verified by the numerical simulation.
