Faculty of Science and Technology

GAIA Laboratory: 4 permanent desks for the pre-doctoral and asociate researchers and 4 working desks for the design of embedded electronic systems on reconfigurable platforms (FPGA and SoPC) consisting of workstations or desktop PCs and development boards (Zynq, Zynq UltraScale, Virtex5, Virtex6 , Kintex7 and Spartan families). All desks include general-purpose software and specific electronic design (EDA) software acquired through the Europractice Program (ISE Design Suite, Vivado Design Suite, ModelSim, etc.).

The laboratory also contains a desk equipped with general-purpose electronic instrumentation (multimeters, signal generators, power supplies and oscilloscopes) and specific instrumentation for design verification (logic analyzer and mixed signal oscilloscope).

Laboratory of Electronics: The GDED also has access to the Laboratory of Electronics, Department of Electricity and Electronics, where there is a space for the design and manufacturing of printed circuit boards.
