Ions has electric charge, if they are in electric field create by positive and negative electrodes, negative ions will move to positive electrode and positive will move to negative electrode. They will try to "meet each other" (I don't know how to explain it) thus creating a current. This current can be measured. The current is proportional to amount of ion-pairs. Amount of ion-pairs is proportional to radioactivity level. +![architecture](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RobertGawron/IonizationChamber/master/documentation/diagrams/ArchitectureOverview-1.png) + + Hardware is made of: * Ionization chamber (two electrodes mentioned above) * Amplifier (first stage is transimpedance amplifier, not FET transistor like most projects use) @@ -29,6 +32,7 @@ Software is done in a way so that it's possible to develop it remotely (I'm usin Below is the picture of actual version, it has digital part and DC/Dc converter, soldering is terrible, but it works. + ![sensor render](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RobertGawron/IonizationChamber/master/documentation/pictures/pcb_04_08_2019.jpg) diff --git a/documentation/diagrams/ArchitectureOverview-1.png b/documentation/diagrams/ArchitectureOverview-1.png new file mode 100644 index 0000000..73a9336 Binary files /dev/null and b/documentation/diagrams/ArchitectureOverview-1.png differ diff --git a/documentation/diagrams/ArchitectureOverview.tex b/documentation/diagrams/ArchitectureOverview.tex index 3b43570..4ef55b2 100644 --- a/documentation/diagrams/ArchitectureOverview.tex +++ b/documentation/diagrams/ArchitectureOverview.tex @@ -2,8 +2,8 @@ \usepackage{textcomp} \usetikzlibrary{arrows.meta,decorations.markings,fit,calc, positioning} -\definecolor{componentColor}{RGB}{220,220,220} -\definecolor{systemColor}{RGB}{250,250,250} +\definecolor{componentColor}{RGB}{210,210,210} +\definecolor{systemColor}{RGB}{230,230,230} \tikzset{component/.append style={fill=componentColor, align=center, draw, minimum width=2cm, minimum height=1.5cm, rounded corners=.3cm}} \tikzset{system/.style={ component, fill=systemColor, rounded corners=0cm}} @@ -55,4 +55,4 @@ \end{scope} \end{tikzpicture} -\end{document} \ No newline at end of file +\end{document} diff --git a/documentation/diagrams/UARTFRameFormat-1.png b/documentation/diagrams/UARTFRameFormat-1.png new file mode 100644 index 0000000..baae96e Binary files /dev/null and b/documentation/diagrams/UARTFRameFormat-1.png differ diff --git a/documentation/diagrams/creatediagrams.sh b/documentation/diagrams/creatediagrams.sh old mode 100644 new mode 100755
