Analog Devices Inc. EVAL-CN0503-ARDZ Liquid Measurement Platform
Analog Devices Inc. EVAL-CN0503-ARDZ Liquid Measurement Platform is a reference design for an optical-based sensor system based on the ADPD410x Multimodal Sensor Front End. The EVAL-CN0503-ARDZ is capable of performing colorimetry, turbidity, and fluorometry measurements. The reference design minimizes complexity by using the ADPD410x, which is capable of simultaneously stimulating four LEDs and synchronously measuring four pairs of photodiodes at a flexible sampling rate. The ADPD410x also includes on-chip digital filters and high ambient light rejection, enabling the platform to operate regardless of environmental lighting conditions.The EVAL-CN0503-ARDZ Liquid Measurement Platform includes an Arduino shield interface, allowing it to be connected to the EVAL-ADICUP3029 Development Platform. The EVAL-ADICUP3029 then connects to a host PC using a USB cable. Once connected, the Optical Demo Software can be used to get multiple liquid parameters, such as turbidity, pH, and fluorescence, using the reference design.
