Central Electronics Engineering Research Institute, popularly known as CEERI, is a constituent establishment of the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), New Delhi. The foundation stone of the institute was laid on 21st September , 1953 by the then Prime Minister Pt. Jawahar Lal Nehru. The actual R&D work started towards the end of 1958. The Institute (CEERI) has since blossomed into a center of excellence for development of technology and for advanced research in electronics. Over the years the institute has developed a number of products and processes and has established facilities to meet the emerging needs of electronics industry.
- To carry out R&D in electronic devices and systems
- To assist industry in technology absorption, upgradation and diversification
- To provide R&D services to industry and users in design, fabrication and testing
- To provide technical services for specific needs towards product development, precision and quality
The major R&D programmes of CEERI can be categorized into three major areas; microwave tubes, semiconductor devices and electronics systems. In the area of microwave tubes the major focus is on communication tubes and industrial tubes. In the area of semiconductor devices, projects are being actively prusued on IC design, power devices, device processing, microwave devices, hybrid microcuits, opto-electronic devices and semi-conductor materials. R&D work in the area of electronics systems is focussed on digital systems, agri electronics, speech technology, industrial electronics, instrumentation systems and communication engineering. Some of the current projects related to:
-
