Appendix B:
Reference 3000 Cell Connectors
Chapter 6 describes the connections between a cell cable and an electrochemical cell. This appendix describes
the other end of the cell cable.
Multiple pins assigned to the same signal are connected together on the Reference 3000’s Potentiostat board. If
you need to connect this signal outside the Reference 3000, you need a wire connected to
any one
of the
D-connector pins.

Shield
The shield for the working electrode. Connected to Floating Ground on D
end of the cable. Left open at the cell end of the cell cable.

4, 6,11,13
Ground
The potentiostat’s floating ground. Can be used to shield the cell if very low
currents need to be measured. Also used as a shield for the counter
electrode cable.

CBL_ID1
One of 4 cable ID bits. Used to identify the type of cell cable attached to the
unit. Pull to a logic High through a resistor. Ground to set the bit low.
8
CBL_ID2
One of 4 cable ID bits. Used to identify the type of cell cable attached to the
unit. Pull to a logic High through a resistor. Ground to set the bit low.
14
CBL_ID0
One of 4 cable ID bits. Used to identify the type of cell cable attached to the
unit. Pull to a logic High through a resistor. Ground to set the bit low.
15
CBL_ID3
One of 4 cable ID bits. Used to identify the type of cell cable attached to the
unit. Pull to a logic High through a resistor. Ground to set the bit low.
