This GAP is focused on the design of an embedded system for providing control and communication interface to the muon counters modules from the AMIGA Project. The design, implementation and performance verification is realized by ITeDA (Instituto de Tecnolog ́ıas en Deteccio ́n y Astropart ́ıculas). The embedded system provides high efficiency in data transfer, controlled and continuous operation, and environmental variables monitoring. Further- more it has the capability of carrying out remotely commanded operations, aiming to calibration and diagnosis. The most important characteristics are its flexibility, the low power consumption and high reliability. Artículo con 15 páginas. Se adjunta sólo la primera.
