Description
Figure shows the general schematics for the electronic measurement board developed. We have developed a complete “plug and play” measurement board. To measure electrical resistivity with Raspberry Pi. two ADS1115 were used,one for the voltage measurement one for the current measurement, as proposed by Florsch [7]. The ADS1115 is a 16-bit ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter), with an adaptable gain. The advantage of ADS1115 is that the input signal value could lie between - to + 6.114 V. For the current measurement we have directly integrated the INA282 component, which allows to realize precise current measurement around a shunt resistor. The assembly are described in the following steps:
1 |
|
Installation of female header, 1 by 10 pins, for ADS1115 |
2 |
|
Soldering of 4 dual-in-line socket (2 by 2 pins) for optical relay, AQY211EH. |
3 |
|
Soldering of 1 dual-in-line socket (2 by 9 pins) for MCP23008. |

Warning
In this version, we used a shunt resistor of 2 ohms, which limits the current measurement to 48 mA. If the current is higher than this value, you just have to decrease the value of the shunt resistor. Don’t forget to change the shunt value in the config.py file (value associated to key ‘R_shunt’ in the OHMPI_CONFIG dict).

|
If everything is working, three I2C addresses should appear on the screen. |
- Setting up an equivalent electronic circuit, for this you will need:
4 1kOhm resistor (R2)
1 220 Ohm resistor (R1)
1 small padboard
Spool of solder
