Jednotka pro detekci bouřek a blesků

Abstract

Lightning strikes are dangerous natural phenomenon. They are capable of cousing fires and theirs radiation destroys the electronics that can't withstand so large electrical currents. In case lightning strikes a building. The building's electrical potential rises. Then large electrical currents flow through conductive pathes to return building's potential back to initial state. This thesis deals with creation and commissioning of lightning detector. This detector is based on Freedomboard made by Freescale, that is using integrated circuit AS3935 made by AMS to detect lightning strikes.
