README
README.mdAIRDOSC01B - AIRDOS dosimeter with scintillator-based sensor
AIRDOS-C Scintillation detector of ionizing radiation with a full production specification available. The device can be further modified according to specific requirements. The character of its construction makes it suitable for placement into UAVs.

Technical parameters are the following:
- Detection element: scintillating crystal integrated with SiPM
- More than 90 days of autonomous operation powered by a lithium battery
- Data memory: SD card
- Data logs contain the energy and time of each event
- Logging periodicity: 10 s (dead time 2 s)
- Time resolution: 20 us
- Accuracy of event’s time: 500 ns
- Dimensions: 57 x 107 x 167 mm
- Mass in operating condition (including batteries) 1 kg
- Open-source HW and SW
- Device status indicator: LED on panel
- Airborne GPS parameters (measurement altitude verified up to 36km a.m.s.l.)
Since 2023, AIRDOSC has been discontinued. Please consider a newer UST dosimeter series.

Questions
How big is the SIPM01B PCB?
It measures 19.8 × 40.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the SIPM01B use?
20 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the SIPM01B KiCad files?
From the UniversalScientificTechnologies/AIRDOSC01 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hw/sch_pcb/SIPM01B/hw/sch_pcb/SIPM01B.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the SIPM01B design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
