Abstract

FRIDA (inFRared Imager and Dissector for Adaptive optics of GTC) is a near-infrared imager and integral field spectrograph covering the wavelength range from 0.9 to 2.5 microns. FRIDA will work in two observing modes: direct imaging and integral field spectroscopy. This paper describes the main achievements and current status in the development of the electronics and control systems for FRIDA´s cryogenic mechanisms, cabling, and keeping (HK). A description of the main hardware and software tests is presented.
