Introduction

3 major commercially available or mass-produced solutions:

  1. Atlas Scientific and Gravity analog pH Kit with board, sensor and buffer solutions. Hiqh quality, not open source.
  2. DFRobot Gravity: Analog pH Sensor Kit
  3. Other (Chinese) manufacturers.
  4. 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
