Hello !
I want to measure photovoltage of LED (as sensor) in open circuit condition with different light intensity.
This is easy with a voltmeter, even with low cost instrument, but with output connected to Arduino ADC input first of all an unstable offset is added .
I try to insert a buffer (JFET 2N3819 or with TLO71 OP) but the result is not so good.
I try also with an external ADC (Delta_Sigma) without succes.
May be the output resistance of LED in open circuit is high ( but it is surprising for my knowlege) and leakage current of input DAC are involved for this additional bias ?
Thank you if you have an idea .
