    Conventional three-electrode systems used in electrochemical measurement demand time-consuming and maintenance intensive procedures to enable accurate and repeatable electrochemical measurements. Traditionally, different metal configurations are used to establish the electrochemical gradient required to acquire the redox activity, and vary between different electrochemical measurement platforms. However, in this work, we report using the same metal (gold) for the counter, working and reference electrodes fabricated on a miniaturized printed circuit board (PCB) for a much simpler design. Potassium ferricyanide, widely used as a redox probe for electrochemical characterization, was utilized to acquire cyclic voltametric profiles using both the printed circuit board-based gold-gold-gold three-electrode and conventional three-electrode systems (glassy carbon electrode or graphite foil as the working electrode, platinum wire as the counter electrode, and Ag/AgCl as the reference electrode). The results show that both types of electrode systems generated similar cyclic voltammograms within the same potential window (-0.5 to +0.7 V). However, the novel PCB-based same-metal three-electrode electrochemical cell only required a few activation cycles and exhibited impressive cyclic voltametric repeatability with higher redox sensitivity and detection window, while using only trace amounts of solutions/analytes.
