kiloAMPS (Final Report)
This project aims to reduce the testing time of various electrochemical techniques for neural interface electrodes by developing an automated PCB design which would be capable of testing multiple interface electrodes in parallel. The system should be able to perform the full battery of electrochemical tests, though electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) will be of primary interest. Previous versions of this project have already improved upon traditional interface testing by automating many parts of the process, reducing the test time to around a day and requiring the technician to check up on the process once every six hours. A key bottleneck is that the electrode testing is still done sequentially. Testing time could be heavily reduced if electrodes could be tested in parallel.
