System Design
|
|
Meeting your specification is very important. In order to understand your system fully, diagrams are drawn up to show the passing of power and signals. This process is key for device selection and for schematic design.
|
Device Selection / Prototype
|
Choosing the right components for your design will increase reliability, and bring down your overall component cost.
From the system diagrams it is possible to start assigning pins for devices like micro controllers ensuring that all necessary communication protocols are correctly utilised. |
|
|
It is often necessary to test design specific devices to ensure their functionality is adequate, this is especially the case when reducing the cost from the Bill of Materials. Other than using more traditional prototyping techniques, larger development boards can be produced, to test varying solutions for the best, and most reliable components for your system.

Mechanical Layout
|
To allow for the correct board shape and to accommodate mechanical fixtures e.g. USB ports, as much detailed information as possible is required. It is also necessary to make known any keep out areas, or spaces with hie restrictions.

Fabrication
|
|
Board fabrication can often be expensive, especially for low volume prototype runs. With built up industry connections it is possible to take care of PCB fabrication, at a competitive rate.
