Often replacements for obsolete components, particularly IC's cannot be obtained and no direct "pin for pin" equivalents can be found. In these cases we can redesign and modify using readily available components.

This may involve simply modifying a PCB to accept an equivalent IC with a different pin configuration to complete redesign of the board to retain the same functionality.

We're often required to produce custom designs, typically for specialist or one off interfacing requirements. With in-house CAD and Software Test Tools we can deliver a wide range of analogue, digital and mixed signal designs to meet exact customer specifications.

Much of this work involves design of equipment, modules and systems to replace existing obsolete equipment that is becoming increasingly unreliable and difficult to maintain.

We also frequently produce custom designs in order to provide functionality that is not readily available from existing commercial equipment.
