All instruments begin with the front end hardware. Without accurate measurements, responsive communications and bug free operation you don't have an instrument.

 




We can design custom I/O interfaces to your sensors. Whether they are themocouples, RTD's, strain gauges, optical sensors, LVDT's, thermistors, PH sensors, infared detector arrays or proton precession magnetometers we have experience designing inputs circuits to measure them.

Microprocessor and DSP based digital circuitry, PLD's, and FPGA's are the building blocks of the modern instrument.

 

Designing hardware for automation and instrumentation is a little different. Our engineers have to worry about things like how input circuits react to 3000V surges, accidental attachment of 240VAC and continuous high common mode voltages.

 

We've designed proprietary and TCP/IP protocol based communications networks. Our systems can communicate to 100's of nodes over miles of cable, in harsh, electrically noisy environments.

 

Modeling, Layout, prototyping and assembly. We use Protel, ORCAD, PADS  and PCAD for design and Multisim for circuit modeling.
