Abstract

This paper presents preparing high voltage for Geiger counter along with data acquisition and monitoring technique by LabVIEW. A high voltage generation circuit is designed for the GM counter and the recorded data is stored, analyzed and monitored in a personal computer with the help of National Instruments Data Acquisition card (DAQ card). The interface between hardware and computer is done by the software LabVIEW.
