Remembering Prof. Emilio Gatti with any single invention of his, such as the sliding-scale analog-to-digital converter (ADC), or the charge sensitive amplifier, will be gross injustice to the talent and genius of this legendary scientist. Universally acclaimed as the 'father of nuclear electronics', Gatti was also a brilliant teacher with unbeatable clarity. Gatti's inventions and numerous contributions to experimental nuclear physics reflect his deep understanding of solid state physics, quantum mechanics, not to exclude classical theories and electronics engineering. He loved mathematics and had outstanding skills in the mapping of physical processes into mathematical models.
