Bargain SDD module McMaster bought on eBay. Can I get it working without too much effort?

Can get a complete unit + PS for $1500-2500

Power supply

Thermo power supplies

Some of these on eBay. Are they related?

DA-15, but looks to be the standard preamplifier found on other LN2 detectors. Is this all these detectors need? What about the A/B/C/D tuning seen on the maximusenergy power supply?

Inventory:

  • VORTEX ELECTRONICS SII controller + matching detector. Detector might have TEC issue / doesn't go down to temperature?
  • Spare detector (broken window, disassembled)
  • SEM detector in the mail

Open spare detector up and take some pictures. Wire bonding / complex structure

Mystery component is probably ion pump. Its only used at the factory and has external magnet + electronics to drive it not included in the final unit

Goal: use breakout board to document DA15 pinout a bit
