Part 15: Integrated Pulsed Amperometric Detection (IPAD)

The Integrated Pulsed Amperometric Detection (IPAD) can apply six segments of potential sweeps or steps. The current is sampled and integrated between the first four potential segments. The last two potential steps are for electrode processing and cleaning. The integrated current is averaged and recorded as a time function. The potential waveforms in the figure below shows that it is applied as a time function and current sampling scheme.
