An Apple II Plus microcomputer was interfaced to a PAR 174A Polarographic Analyser, an HP 7O4OA X-Y recorder and a three-electrode system. This on-line computer system was applied to Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) studies. The interfacing involved both hardware and software development. Various hardware components were used to amplify and transmit the analog signal both going into the computer and coming from the computer. Software programs were written for staircase waveform generation, data acquisition, and plotting the voltammograms obtained.

A package was designed for CV experiments to be used by the students in the instrumental analysis laboratory. This package contains several …
