Abstract:
In this research a portable potentiostat was built for electrochemical sensing measurements with three electrodes, specifically SPCEs. The circuit uses a microcontroller as the main controller to manage all activities, starting from adjusting the input voltage for the SPCEs, setting measurement parameters, measuring the resulting current, displaying graphics on the touch screen, sending data to the computer via the USB port, and connecting to the SD card. Measurements and errors with cyclic voltammetry techniques have been compared with commercial potentiostats. The measurement results on a dummy circuit and commercial SPCEs have an accuracy of more than 90% compared to commercial potentiostats. In addition, measurement data can also be saved to an SD card in .CSV format for further purposes.
