One team.  One stack.  No handoff delays.

Engineering Design Services : PCB to firmware, end to end

When an advanced system is behind schedule, you need experienced resources who can deliver first-pass success.  We optimize firmware and hardware partitioning for performance and time-to-market from day one, and because our complete-stack expertise runs from PCB design through FPGA implementation to embedded firmware, there are no handoff delays or integration surprises.

How we engage

Full turn-key design

Schematic capture & multi-layer PCB layout, including special dielectrics

Vivado support on retainer

Dedicated AMD / Xilinx tools support for high-reliability, low-volume, or long-cycle programs. The expertise you need, when you need it.

Design reviews & rescues

Architecture audits, timing closure, build-time reduction, and constraint development to get stalled programs back on track.

Embedded expertise on demand

Augment your team with senior FPGA, SoC, or firmware engineers for exactly the gap you need filled.
