Expert Printed Circuit Board Design for Demanding Applications

We have been doing advanced Printed Circuit Board (PCB) design since 2002 – That vast experience at the initial PCB design and layout stage can reduce industry compliance testing issues later on. 

Custom PCB design services and PCBA designs are at the heart of every project at DE Design Works. We have created PCB control systems in a lot of product areas including: 

• Analog Systems and Sensors

• High Speed Digital and Networking

• Wireless Connectivity such as BLE, Wi-Fi, and LoRa

• EMC / EMI or RFI

• Low Power and Battery Operated

• Industrial Controls and IIoT

• Power Systems

• Motor Control

• Radio Frequency (RF)

• UI/UX, and Touch Screens

• Military

• Medical

• Commercial Products and Appliances

• Broad Market Industrial

Our PCB design to production-ready experience can shorten your product development timeline and save your NRE budget.

DE System on Module Case Study

A DE custom system on module (SoM) is an incredibly flexible, rugged, encrypted, low-power platform board was developed for a customer in partnership. The platform features a right-sized Linux ARM processor with automotive-grade thermal capabilities, a field updateable FPGA for ultimate hardware interface flexibility, a dedicated encryption engine for secure speed without compromise. Think of this as a very secure and flexible universal platform in a very small (2” x 3”), low-power package. 

Portable CBRN Control System Case Study

As a non-traditional military supplier, we improved the previous generation of mechanical dials and switches in a heavy metal box to include a much smaller and portable size. Reliability in the field was also an issue in previous generations. But this product now contains easy to set and read digital displays in a light-weight total package that still meets the rugged MIL-STD-461 on radiated emissions (a high-level military standard to minimize radiated electronic noise).
