Start Phase Galvanostatic

The start phase is an optional preconditioning of galvanostatic methods if the potentiostat is already switched on.

If the start current of the method differs from the last applied current, the current of the DUT is ramped to this start current of the subsequent measurement method at a defined scan rate.

Parameter Description

Parameter	Name	Description	Unit
Scan Rate	\(\frac{|∆I|}{∆t}\)	current scan rate for ramping from applied current to the next starting current	\(\frac{I}{s}\)

Measurement Result

The voltage and current curves are recorded as a function of time. Additional measurement signals are also recorded if they are activated.
