Geiger Counter Archives Circuit Diagram
Geiger Counter Archives Circuit Diagram This DIY nuclear radiation detector can measure and detect alpha, beta, and gamma radiation. Here we used muller tube, Geiger counter & ESP32. Making Portable Radiation Detection Device. By Ashwini Sinha. December 13, 2022. Telegram. Facebook. Linkedin. Here we used the muller tube and Geiger counter circuit to get the nuclear radiation.

The key principal of Geiger counter operation is the Geiger tube, and how it sets up a high voltage on one electrode. This high voltage is like a steep mountain slope covered in deep snow, and all it takes is a tiny bit of radiation energy (akin to a skier going down the slope) to set off an avalanche.

Working Geiger Counter W/ Minimal Parts Circuit Diagram
The electronic circuit of a Geiger-Mรผller counter. MC34063 is a DC/DC converter used to produce required high voltage, one of it's advantage over a simple NE555 or similar generators in this circuit is that it can monitor the output voltage and adjusts parameters to make it stable (R3, R4, R5, C3). Before mounting the PCB inside the case, check to make sure the entire Geiger Counter circuit functions. Background radiation will cause the Geiger Counter to click about 12โ22 times a minute depending on your location. When you are satisfied that the circuit is working properly we can mount the circuit inside the case.

DIY Portable Radiation Detector using Geiger Counter Module Circuit Diagram
Geiger-Muller tube operation (Source: Wikipedia) The following circuit (originally published on Elektor July 2006 magazine) illustrates how a GM tube can be used with some basic electronics to make a radiation detector, often known as Geiger counter. The circuit uses two 555 timer ICs.
