The Nanosatellites Electronics Lab is equipped with instrumentation for the design, simulation, test and prototyping of analog, digital and mixed signal electronic circuits for space applications. The activities carried out in the laboratory include the development of the flight software for the ABACUS on-board computer and the test of payload electronics developed at the School of Aerospace Engineering.
The lab is also used for the didactic activities oriented to familiarize the students with the satellite electronics as well as with the lab instrumentation and procedures. The equipment of the lab includes a soldering workstation with ESD protection, low noise power supplies, waveform signal generators, oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzer, logic analyzer, programming tools for digital embedded systems and ESD protected working area.
