Description

The Electronic Design Laboratory has a floor area of 80 m2 and is designed for working with electronic devices and systems. It offers generic measuring and testing equipment as well as the normal services provided by a technological research and development laboratory. The Laboratory boasts a collection of conventional resources like floors and tables designed to minimise static electricity build-up, air conditioning, cordless telephones, multiple local IT network connections, conventional and uninterrupted electricity supply and numerical code access control. It also has a collection of specialised electronic measuring and testing devices like logic analysers, oscilloscopes, signal generators, power supplies, counters, spectrum analysers and multimeters. The Laboratory is managed by the Electronics Department.
