Technical parameters

  • Silicon PIN diode detector with 44 mm³ detection volume
  • The number of energy channels depends on the firmware
  • Deposited energy range from 60 keV to 7 MeV, the measurement range could be adjusted by altering values in the analog front end
  • Energy measurement resolution 15 ±2 keV (the exact value depends on firmware and analog front-end setup).
  • Power supply 3.3 to 5V / 3 mA
  • Integration time depends on specific firmware setup
  • Interface - RS232 TTL on JST-GH connector or USB-C device
  • Dimensions - 91mm x 51mm x 12mm
  • Weight

Use cases

USB interface

The main user interface is with a USB-C connector. See the LABDOS01 for a detailed description.

UART interface

It could also be used for firmware upgrades by switching solder jumper on the PCB.

Questions

How big is the USTSIPIN02 PCB?

It measures 90.9 × 50.3 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.66 mm thick.

What parts does the USTSIPIN02 use?

174 parts, built around the ATMEGA1284P-AU, BMI-S-204-F, OPA2314M/TR and FT231XQ-R. 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 USTSIPIN02 KiCad files?

From the ust-modules/USTSIPIN02 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hw/sch_pcb/USTSIPIN02.kicad_pcb and its schematic hw/sch_pcb/USTSIPIN02.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the USTSIPIN02 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).
