Re: Si pin Detectors


 

Taray,

Just to be clear, I have modified Theremino to import and display the .mca files that are collected by DppMCA, the Amptek MCA program designed to work with their hardware.? Theremino does not collect data directly from the DP5-PC5 PCB stack.

As George mentioned, you will need more than just this detector for a working system.? It looks like about $1200 for the components, which then need to be integrated together.? George knows more about that since I bought my working system from him.

Talk to Charles Young, a member here who has adapted the Amptek to the
Theremino? program and made improvements to that program.

I can comment on the hardware- how I did it- you will need the sensor, and the DP5-PC5 PCB stack from eBay, then a 5V power supply (2 amps) and a heat sink direct from Amptek. These cost about $200, and could possibly be home made, again talk to Charles before buying on eBay.

Subject: [XRF] Si pin Detectors

Hi guys

I like to get one of those Si pin detectors

There is an eBay??seller selling..

?

Si-PIN (FSJ32MD-G3SP)?detector element with PA230? Preamplifier, 25mm^2, 1 mil Be window for??about Us500?

?

It seems??to be needing connections to a Amptek MCA with preamp

Also seen Thermimo pics of usage??in our forum.

How do I??connect a??Si pin??sensor to get on Thermimo??for a complete affordable setup?It appears to be a cheaper option
