Hardware Measurements

Before experiments of neuroscientific relevance can be performed on the FACETS hardware, it has to be assured that the silicon substrate behaves as homogeneous as possible. Every electronic circuit has to be tested and specified, and inhomogeneous transistor properties due to production process variations have to be counterbalanced by calibration routines.
