README
README.mdAIRDOSF01A - Airborne cosmic radiation dosimeter without GPS
Cosmic radiation dosimeter unit. It is intended for airborne measurements of cosmic radiation and dosimetry in mixed ionization fields on board of aircrafts. "F" version of AIRDOS has a flipped PIN diode sensor (by 90 degrees) in comparison to a newer AIRDOS02 alternative.

Technical parameters are as following:
- Silicon PIN diode detector with 60mm3 detection volume
- Measurement endurance 180 days
- Number of energy channels 248
- Energy measurement resolution <60 keV/channel
- Integration time 10 s
- Size LxWxH 166 mm x 107 mm x 57 mm
- Weight 0.8 kg (without batteries)

Questions
How big is the DIODECOVER01A PCB?
It measures 24.7 × 36.7 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the DIODECOVER01A use?
5 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 DIODECOVER01A KiCad files?
From the UniversalScientificTechnologies/AIRDOSF01 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hw/sch_pcb/old/DIODECOVER01A/sch_pcb/DIODECOVER01A.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the DIODECOVER01A 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).
