ECE 480: Design Team 2:
Electrochemical Instrumentation for Functional Proteomics



Dr. Mason tasked design team two with creating a low cost alternative to
current lab-based electro-chemical testing equipment. The product was
required to be a portable battery powered device, which can easily be used
in any location not just a laboratory. Using both hardware and
software elements, the system should be capable of performing multiple
electrochemical techniques including chronoamperometry, cyclic voltammetry,
and, if possible, low frequency impedance spectroscopy. It should
accommodate a broad range of signal levels to suit a variety of usage
scenarios.
It operates using two AA batteries and communicates wirelessly with a laptop
via a Bluetooth connection. This
product has been designed to be easily customized for testing applications
in fields such as: chemical, medical, and food safety.
