This project aims to optimize the HV supply and preamplifier noise in pure He gas by implementing a new print with improved gas regulation, DC tightness, and He-C2H6 ratio. It also focuses on protecting the system, calibrating the DC channels, and optimizing the ramping capabilities. Additionally, the project involves improving the noise behavior, evaluating the performance of different components, and enhancing the overall stability and reproducibility of the system.
