Electronics hardware design
Schematic and multilayer PCB design by experienced designers who consider EMI and EMC from the first placement, which helps keep compliance testing smooth. Dense, high speed and mixed signal boards engineered for performance, manufacturability and certification, including hardware we have taken through IEC 60601 medical electrical safety and ATEX hazardous area certification.
01.1High density interconnect
Microvias and blind or buried vias for very compact layouts; high density BGA routing down to 4 mil traces.
01.2High speed signal integrity
Impedance matched lanes, controlled geometry and dielectric selection, differential pairs with precise length and skew matching for USB 3, MIPI and more.
01.3Mixed signal co design
Analog and digital partitioning optimised for noise immunity, power efficiency and signal integrity.
01.4Precision power
Low noise, low quiescent supplies, auto tracking and ramping rails with threshold staging, and battery management.
01.5Wireless & RF
BLE, Wi-Fi, Thread, Zigbee, Matter, LoRaWAN, LTE-M and 5G with onboard PCB or ceramic antennas.
01.6Certified hardware
Designs taken through IEC 60601 electrical safety certification for medical devices and ATEX certification for oil & gas sites, with isolation, creepage and intrinsic safety built in from the first schematic.
Quantum, photonic & precision instrumentation
Front ends, drivers and control loops for optical, atomic and quantum laboratories, where noise floors, drift and stability decide whether an experiment works.
02.1Balanced photodetection
High speed, low power balanced photodiode instrumentation with multi stage transimpedance amplification and common mode rejection.
02.2Low noise current drivers
Precision current sources for laser diodes, magnetic coils and heaters, from low power bias to higher power drive.

02.4Temperature & field stabilisation
Heater and coil control loops that hold optical and magnetic conditions steady over long runs.
02.5Precision timing
Very low ppm clock references and synchronisation for multichannel acquisition.
02.6Characterisation
Noise spectral density, bandwidth and drift measurements, documented against your specification.
Bio instrumentation & signal processing
From the analog front end to real time digital processing, we pull clean, meaningful signals out of noisy sensors, on the device, at the edge or in the cloud.
03.1Analog conditioning
Anti aliasing, gain staging and low noise amplification matched to your sensor and ADC.
03.2Digital filtering
FIR and IIR filter design, decimation and real time implementation on MCUs and embedded processors.
03.3Spectral & lock in analysis
FFT, demodulation and lock in detection to recover weak signals buried in noise.
03.4Biosignal processing
ECG, EEG and PPG artefact removal, feature extraction and event detection.
03.5Radar & motion
mmWave radar and IMU processing, including multi sensor fusion.
03.6Noise budgeting
End to end noise analysis so the system meets its target before a board is made.
Data science & explainable models
We build the model, not just the code around it, from data strategy and feature engineering to validated, human explainable models that engineers, clinicians and regulators can trust.
04.1Problem framing & data strategy
Define what to predict, what data to collect and how your instrument should capture it.
04.2Feature engineering & modelling
Physics aware features and models, from decision trees and gradient boosting to deep learning.
04.3Human explainable models
Interpretable models and feature attribution so every prediction can be traced back to its inputs.
04.4Validation & uncertainty
Robust cross validation, uncertainty estimates and bias checks, documented for review.
04.5Edge deployment
Quantised models running on MCUs (TinyML) and embedded Linux SoCs and NPUs.
04.6LLM applications
Retrieval, prompt design and evaluation for domain specific language model tools.
Modelling & simulation
We model circuits and systems before we build them, so problems are found in software, not on the bench.
05.1Circuit simulation
SPICE and LTspice modelling of analog, power and mixed signal circuits, including vendor model conversion.
05.2Signal & power integrity
Pre layout and post layout analysis of high speed channels and power delivery networks.
