&lt;div&gt;The SiPM board is a printed circuit board (PCB) designed to dock and process the signal from the SiPM-scintillator coupling into a readout. Ideally no information such as timing from the scintillator should be lost, and the signal could be amplified/ processed with the board. In some applications involving significant temperature fluctuations, a compensator could also be built into the board. For the Muonpi project, the board should just be able to dock the SiPM-scintillator coupling to the readout. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The circuit configuration of the PCB varies depending on the number of SiPM's it needs to accommodate. For housing a single SiPM the configuration is to just connect it with ground and readout/ bias. However, for connecting multiple SiPM's there are two possible configurations: parallel (p) and hybrid (h) configuration as illustrated below. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Both configurations are quite similar in term of performance, with the hybrid configuration having a slightly faster rising edge (by a few ns &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[Nies, L., Zaunick, H. G., &amp;amp; Brinkmann, K-. T.. Development of a SiPM-based readout-module for the characterization of various scintillator materials. arXiv. (2018). &amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;). The signal amplitude for the hybrid configuration decreases by a factor of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{1}{\sqrt{N}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; where N the number of SiPM, whereas the signal amplitude does not change for parallel configuration. However, the timing of the parallel configuration also decreases with the number of connected SiPM's; hence, for applications that are very time sensitive, the hybrid configuration might be necessary. Moreover, the hybrid configuration has more complexity, which might make the configuration more expensive to produce. Therefore for simplicity, the Muonpi project uses the parallel configuration. It keeps the simplicity while giving the option for adding SiPM further down the road. The schematic of the SiPM board for the Muon Pi project is shown below. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;The SiPM board is a printed circuit board (PCB) designed to dock and process the signal from the SiPM-scintillator coupling into a readout. Ideally no information such as timing from the scintillator should be lost, and the signal could be amplified/ processed with the board. In some applications involving significant temperature fluctuations, a compensator could also be built into the board. For the Muonpi project, the board should just be able to dock the SiPM-scintillator coupling to the readout. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The circuit configuration of the PCB varies depending on the number of SiPM's it needs to accommodate. For housing a single SiPM the configuration is to just connect it with ground and readout/ bias. However, for connecting multiple SiPM's there are two possible configurations: parallel (p) and hybrid (h) configuration as illustrated below. &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Jepretan Layar 2020-06-23 pukul 4.23.54 PM.png|thumb|Parallel (p) and hybrid (h) configuration of SiPM board &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[S. Zimmermann. The panda barrel-tof detector.

The signal path is depicted in red, the bias current in green, and the ground in blue.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Both configurations are quite similar in term of performance, with the hybrid configuration having a slightly faster rising edge (few ns). Hence for applications that are very time sensitive, the hybrid configuration might be necessary. However the hybrid configuration has more complexity, which might make the configuration more expensive to produce. Therefore for simplicity, the Muonpi project uses the parallel configuration is suitable for the Muonpi project as it keeps the simplicity while giving the option for adding SiPM further down the road.

&lt;div&gt;The SiPM board is a printed circuit board (PCB) designed to dock and process the signal from the SiPM-scintillator coupling into a readout. Ideally no information such as timing from the scintillator should be lost, and the signal could be amplified/ processed with the board. In some applications involving significant temperature fluctuations, a compensator could also be built into the board. For the Muonpi project, the board should just be able to dock the SiPM-scintillator coupling to the readout. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The circuit configuration of the PCB varies depending on the number of SiPM's it needs to accommodate. For housing a single SiPM the configuration is to just connect it with ground and readout/ bias. However, for connecting multiple SiPM's there are two possible configurations: parallel (p) and hybrid (h) configuration as illustrated below. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Jepretan Layar 2020-06-23 pukul 4.23.54 PM.png|thumb|Parallel (p) and hybrid (h) configuration of SiPM board. Taken from [1]]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Both configurations are quite similar in term of performance, with the hybrid configuration having a slightly faster rising edge. However the hybrid configuration has more complexity, which might make the configuration more expensive to produce. Therefore for simplicity, the Muonpi project uses the parallel configuration is suitable for the Muonpi project as it keeps the simplicity while giving the option for adding SiPM further down the road. The schematic of the SiPM board for the Muon Pi project is shown below. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;= The MuonPi Cosmic Detector Project =&lt;br /&gt;
The MuonPi Project is a [https://www.raspberrypi.org/ RaspberryPi]-based system using an inexpensive plastic [[Scintillator|scintillator]] + [[Silicon photomultiplier|SiPM]] photo sensor to detect muons from cosmic air showers with a time-stamping accuracy of several tens of nanoseconds utilizing the [https://www.u-blox.com/en/product/neo-m8-series u-blox NEO-M8N GNSS] module's &amp;quot;timemark&amp;quot; feature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Learn about cosmic radiation ====&lt;br /&gt;
* Get started with [[Cosmic Rays]], especially [[Muon]]s&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==== Learn about the detectors ====&lt;br /&gt;
* Basics of [[Scintillator]]s&lt;br /&gt;
* Find out about [[Silicon photomultiplier]]s&lt;br /&gt;
* How the [[The Detector|detector]] is assembled&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= The Hardware =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== SiPM PCB ===&lt;br /&gt;
The SiPM photo sensor which detects the dim light generated inside the scintillation detector is mounted on a small [[Sipm_board|SiPM board]]. Different numbers of SiPMs and read-out configurations can be realized through its flexible design.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Preamplifier ===&lt;br /&gt;
The [[preamp|preamplifier]] is located in close vicinity to the [[sipm_board|SiPM photodetector board]] and amplifies the weak signals for transmission to the [[muonpi_board|MuonPi]] board, where they are further processed and evaluated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The MuonPi-Board ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The main signal processing, voltage generation and parameter monitoring and adjustment is done on the Raspberry Pi plug-on [[muonpi_board|MuonPi Board]].&lt;br /&gt;
