Glacier elettronica
About the Glacier elettronica PCB
Glacier elettronica is an open source PCB design by bagnasconicolo, published on GitHub under the CERN-OHL-W-2.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 80 × 55 mm, with 59 components from 42 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the LT3461, TLC555/LMC555, MAX961, MCP1402 and LP2985AIM5-3.6. By type, the board carries 22 resistors, 10 capacitors, 8 ICs, 3 connectors, 2 transistors and 2 diodes.
From the project
Front-end di lettura per un rivelatore di muoni cosmici basato su SiPM + scintillatore: amplificatore veloce, discriminatore a soglia regolabile, generazione del bias del SiPM, uscita TTL e buffer d'uscita verso Arduino.

Ricostruzione completa in KiCad — dal solo PDF scansionato dello schema originale INFN sez. Torino ("Riv. Cosmici 2024 — Amplif, alim, soglie", S. Gallian) — accompagnata da simulazioni circuitali non lineari, un verificatore che gira direttamente dallo schema, un sito didattico interattivo e il firmware Arduino per il conteggio.
