Mining in the state of Zacatecas has been a pillar in economic development because it is founded population centers of Fresnillo, Concepción del Oro, the capital of the state, and so on. In the mining industry during the extraction step is necessary to use controlled explosions. The magnitude of the explosion can be handled by the ratio of the amount of explosive, the rate of expansion.

The project aims to develop a controlled detonation of explosives. The system is based on a FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array), the system can be programmed via USB or via the keyboard. The system is designed for 16 outputs, with a minimum of 1 micro seconds between each blast. The system allows electronic lighting a match to provide a current up to 1.5 amps.

It is a robust system that can be used in Mining (detonation of explosives), Aquaculture (detonation flares) and construction (demolition of buildings). The system is in Beta Stage Unit has a precision and safety measures necessary for optimal operation in the mining industry, using electronic matches as detonators for the blasts.
