From sensors to the user interface

An embedded system combines complementary building blocks. Their coordination starts with the product definition.

Acquire
Receive sensor signals and convert them into usable data.
Process
Run control and processing functions suited to the application.
Communicate
Transmit information and make it available to the rest of the system.

Structured support, from requirements to prototype

Steps and deliverables depend on project maturity and the agreed scope.

  1. Define requirements

    Identify functions, operating conditions and technical constraints.

  2. Design the architecture

    Allocate hardware and software functions and define their interfaces.

  3. Develop & integrate

    Build the agreed blocks and bring up their connections on a prototype.

  4. Validate the system

    Verify requirements and prepare the information needed for the next project stage.

Connecting your ASIC to the wider system

A custom circuit delivers its value within the product that hosts it. Understanding the embedded system helps define its interfaces, constraints and integration.
