About the PMT-socket schema PCB
PMT-socket schema is an open source PCB design by Mballina42, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 75 × 75 mm, with 34 components from 20 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the PMT-R5912. By type, the board carries 25 resistors, 5 capacitors, 3 connectors and 1 IC.
From the project
Hamamatsu R5912 voltage divider with socket
For the LAGO project, the instrumentation laboratory of the Escuela de Ciencias Físicas y Matemáticas of the Universidad de San Carlos de Guatemala, with the support of the mlab of the ICTP, is developing the prototype of the electronics for a Water Cherenkov Detector that contains coincidences for vertical muons .
Here you can find the schematic of the project in pdf format, the editable files can also be found in the PMT-VD folder.
