-EVAL-CN0536-ARDZ is a low-power Geiger counter radiation detector in an Arduino shield form factor that can run on 3V to 5V system supply. It has a low cost, high voltage generation power supply that is robust and adjustable voltage output from 280V to 500V output. One of the key major part of the circuit in figure 1 is  to generate high voltage output using Analog Devices precision programmable oscillator that is versatile, compact and easy to use LTC6906 that can be set to run oscillate from 10khz to 1Mhz using single user defined resistor value. This reference circuit design is compatible with most of the Geiger-Muller tube sensors available in the market today with a voltage rating between 280V to 500V. +
