Parameter

Description

Units

Voltage

The voltage applied during the charge step.

volts (V)

Charge Time

Duration of the charge step.

seconds (s), minutes (min), hours (hr), days (d)

Decay Time

The duration during which the cell’s open-circuit potential is measured in the self-discharge step.

seconds (s), minutes (min), hours (hr), days (d)

Sample Period

The spacing between data points. The shortest Sample Period we recommend is 0.5 s (50 ms). The longest Sample Period allowed is 715 s for Reference potentiostats and 750 s for Interface potentiostats.

 

Use Sample Period to determine the Number of Points in the data curve as follows:

 

 

The Number of Points must be less than 262 143 (218 - 1). If you have more points, the experiment aborts just before the data acquisition phase of the sequence. The resolution in the Total Time is controlled by the Sample Period. Times that are not integer multiples of the Sample Period are rounded down. For example, if the Sample Period is set for 8 seconds, and a Total Time of 900 seconds is requested, the actual Total Time will be 896 seconds, which is 112 Sample Periods.
