Engineering & R&D
Hardware Development
Schematic, PCB layout, prototype bring-up and production data, developed alongside the enclosure so the board actually fits.
The board and the enclosure are one job
Hardware and structure are often outsourced separately: the board is laid out for electrical optimum, the enclosure for visual optimum, and at assembly the connector faces the wrong way or the board is 0.4mm too thick. Whoever finished first reworks.
We run both on the same rhythm. Structure supplies the outline and height limits; hardware lays out within them; critical interface positions are locked at schematic stage.
Two questions belong at selection
A hardware respin costs more than a structural one, because it drags scrapped components and another fabrication wait with it. So "will it fit" and "can we buy it" move up to component selection.
Capabilities
| Deliverables | Schematic, PCB project files, Gerber, BOM, placement drawing, test notes |
|---|---|
| Typical duration | 3–6 weeks to first prototype at moderate complexity, subject to component lead times |
| Co-development | Shared board outline and height constraints; interface positions locked jointly |
| Bring-up scope | Functional verification and basic electrical test; EMC and safety via third-party lab (to be confirmed) |
