Introduction
3 major commercially available or mass-produced solutions:
- Atlas Scientific and Gravity analog pH Kit with board, sensor and buffer solutions. Hiqh quality, not open source.
- DFRobot Gravity: Analog pH Sensor Kit
- Other (Chinese) manufacturers.
- Seeed Studio
Theory
An ideal pH sensor because H+ ions. Ranging linearly:
- U = 0 @ pH 7
- U > 0 @ pH < 7
- U < 0 @ pH > 7
A high quality op amp is needed to amplify the voltage.
The pH electrode
- a passive sensor
