1rst spectrum

Post by ChrisRadium2023 » 04 Feb 2023, 12:20

Hello guys,
here is my first spectrum that looks like a spectrum!

My high voltage from amazon with an simple RC filter works fine (a few mV ripple but will be improved later).

The new proper sound card (@48kHz so far but will be changed for a 192kHz soon) was the key of the technical problems....

There is still loads of things to improve but its a start...

I forgot to mention an important detail : there is NO preamp or other electronics other that just a primitiv crude shaper made of a CR-RC filter in series.

Ps : i'm not sure yet about the peaks values but I will try to get some calibration check source at work.

There are still some linearity issues to deal with but its working (so it seems ).

The weird thing is that I have to add a 10M at the output of the HV if I want the results to be linear...

à suivre
Chris.

I've just done the Uraninite spectrum to check if it worked too....
