Re: Mightyohm Geiger Counter & Raspberry Pi

Actually another question for you

Is there a theoretical limit on how many counts per minute the circuit can manage?

E.g. is 200,000 counts per minute possible? We are going to be using this against a caesium 137 source (for measuring the density of the material going through a pipe).

Re: Mightyohm Geiger Counter & Raspberry Pi

Any tips for how to connect the geiger counter to the raspberry PI to access the raw counts? E.g. not through the serial port.

I would like to use the PI to read in the raw counts and bypass the Tiny chip completely if possible.
