The Department of Electronics is dedicated to the design and development of electronic systems in general, especially oriented towards scientific instruments. More specifically, digital and analogue systems are designed for the control of devices and for the acquisition and data processing in real time. Devices for reading, processing, control and characterization of detectors are also designed, as well as closed loop control systems. The Department manages the Electronics and Electromagnetic Compatibility laboratories as well as the Image and Sensors Laboratory for Astronomy and the Environmental Test Chamber.
