| The CN0503 measures the light intensity of the incident light through a reference photodiode and the light intensity of the fluorescent light through a right angle photodiode. This section details the mathematical method of calculating the concentration of the target fluorescent material in the solution from raw light intensity 16-bit ADC values and the polynomial approximation of the re-arranged Beer-Lambert equation.\\ | The CN0503 measures the intensity of the fluorescent light through a right angle photodiode and the intensity of the incident light through a reference photodiode. A polynomial approximation for computing quinine concentration can be modeled using the ratios of the two intensities measured from samples of known values.\\ |

| - The first and most important variable is the ratio of the incident light intensity to emitted light intensity. The CN0503 denotes each sampled light intensity in the format <light path><photodiode number> (e.g. A1 for first light path and the first photodiode). For path 1 and 4, the first photodiode can be either the transmit photodiode, directly in the light path, or the fluorescent photodiode, configurable through the P1ASEL and P4ASEL, respectively. By default, the CN0503 adds a digital raw adc offset of 2048. Thus, the equation for the ratio can be written as shown in the equation below. This is defined in the CN0503 application as the absolute ratio ARAT and set using the **DEFX ARAT** command also shown below.\\ {{ :resources:eval:user-guides:circuits-from-the-lab:cn0503:fl_arat.png?nolink&600 |}} | - The ratio of the fluorescent light intensity and incident light intensity is calculated using the CN0503 firmware and is called the **absolute ratio (ARAT)**. |
| - The CN0503 allows setting a baseline ratio to remove small factors contributed by the optical glass elements such as the beams splitter, lens, and filters. This can be used if a quinine solution of known concentration is available. For this demo, it will not be used and is set to 1. The result of referencing the obtained ARAT to a baseline ratio is defined as the relative ratio RRAT.\\ {{ :resources:eval:user-guides:circuits-from-the-lab:cn0503:fl_rrat.png?nolink&600 |}} | - The computation of the ARAT is configurable through software in reverse polish notation (RPN). The variable naming format for the measured light intensities is shown below:\\ <code> |
| - The CN0503 application does not implement a mathematical log operation. Instead, it uses a 5th-order polynomial approximation to convert the relative ratios to desired values. Using Microsoft Excel, the quinine concentration is calculated for several data points from set values of the relative ratio.\\ {{ :resources:eval:user-guides:circuits-from-the-lab:cn0503:fl_exceldata.png?nolink&600 |}} | <light path><photodiode number> |
| - The 5th-order polynomial approximation can be obtained from the trendline of the xy scatter plot of the data.\\ {{ :resources:eval:user-guides:circuits-from-the-lab:cn0503:fl_trendline.png?nolink |}}\\ | where: |
| | <light path> = A for path 1, B for path 2, C for path 3, D for path 4 |
| | <photodiode number> = 1, 2 |
| | </code>For path 1 and 4, the photodiode 1 can be configured to the transmit photodiode (directly in the light path) or the right-angle (fluorescent) photodiode, through the P1ASEL and P4ASEL headers, respectively, while photodiode 2 can be configured to the right-angle (fluorescent) photodiode or the reference (incident) photodiode. You can use the **DEFX ARAT** command to change the ARAT equation. The example shown below sets the ARAT computation in path 1 which subtracts a 2048 raw ADC offset from each light intensity value in the ratio.\\ {{:resources:eval:user-guides:circuits-from-the-lab:cn0503:fl_aratcmd.png?nolink&400|}} |
| | - **Optionally**, the CN0503 allows setting a baseline ratio to remove small factors contributed by the optical glass elements such as the beams splitter, lens, and filters. The ARAT value is divided by the baseline ratio to produce the relative ratio (RRAT). The common way to set the baseline ratio is to take the average ARAT when its expected value is 1. For this demo, the baseline ratio is neglected and set to 1 |
| | - Using samples with known quinine concentration, the measured RRAT values for each are used as data points for the polynomial approximation.\\ {{:resources:eval:user-guides:circuits-from-the-lab:cn0503:fl_datapoints.png?nolink&400|}} |
| | - A 3rd order polynomial approximation can be obtained from the trendline of the x-y scatter plot of the data.\\ {{:resources:eval:user-guides:circuits-from-the-lab:cn0503:fl_polynomial.png?nolink|}}\\ |
| <note important>The number of significant digits of the coefficients of the polynomial equation is crucial to the accuracy of the approximation. However, the CN0503 also has an 80-character limit for each command. It is recommended to use a **3 decimal digit scientific notation** for the coefficients.\\ {{ :resources:eval:user-guides:circuits-from-the-lab:cn0503:fl_scinotation.png?nolink&400 |}}</note> | <note important>The number of significant digits of the coefficients of the polynomial equation is crucial to the accuracy of the approximation.

| The polynomial approximation is applied to the CN0503 using the **DEFX INS0** or **DEFX INS1** command (See the [[resources:eval:user-guides:eval-adicup3029:reference_designs:demo_cn0503|Software User Guide]] for more details on this).
