Potentiostat holds Voltage constant and puts out the current needed
Galvanostat does vise versa

Potentiostat can be easily built by students Must cost under $100 Must have the ability to measure
Electrochemical potential Must be easy to use
Project Requirements

Function of system as an entity Measures characteristics of electrolytic cells Allocate PC come through USB to potentiostat via GUI(don’t use
the word GUI ;))

The Data/Display Management System manages three sub components
System control Software on the PC will provide the user with
means to specify the appropriate parameters Data logging
The PC will have the ability to keep records of the measurements returned from the Potentiostat
Data display After testing is successfully finished, the user will
have the ability to view results on the PC

The PC is connected to the potentiostat Software with a Graphical User Interface program will
run on a PC The user will have the ability to change configuration of
the test device through the GUI program to send to the potentiostat
Once the potentiostat is finished executing the test, the user will then receive the results through the software and have the ability to review them on the GUI.
Operational Concept
![Page 17: Potentiostat](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081419/56815dd4550346895dcc0033/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
PC with USB connection For the Potentiostat to communicate with the PC, a
connection must be established through a USB interface DC Power Converter
A DC power converter must be utilized within the system to allow 120VAC, 60Hz, and 15A of operational power
External Interfaces

Intelligent Potentiostat Requirements The Potentiostat manages two functions
Data communication The function of this subcomponent is to
communicate all data from the PC Interfacing Control to the Potentiostat system
Device Under Test (DUT) measurement

Data/Display Management System The Data/Display Management System will handle
4 main requirements through C# Program Simplistic GUI for Data Controlling Transmit the configuration to the controller Initiates measurement process Retrieves raw data
Data/Display Management System Software

The PC Software will allow user to configure the test profile The user will have the ability to select various waveforms
and also set the maximum voltage applied by the potentiostat
The results of each measurement will then be reported back to the user
