The equation I've been using is 1/80/pow(2,14)*1e6 = 0.7629 uV

That makes sense, not sure where I got my number from tbh.

See above...
1/80/pow(2,12)*1e6 = 3.05176 uV

Volts per bit should be exactly 4x higher than for the beta probes

I get the 4x thing (14->12 bit) but I see this on the data sheet:
is it 80 or 100 for the public version?

This on latest brochure as well

I was confused about that as well – but I confirmed that there is exactly a 4x difference by putting beta and commercial probes in the same saline bath

hey y'all. Just commenting to bring attention to this PR for the purpose of accurately populating this page: |
- Also fix typos: - electophysiology -> electrophysiology - "is a amplified" -> "is an amplified"

This is how my edits render: |
