ELECTRONIC DEVELOPMENT

Hardware andPCB development.

Turn an operational need into an electronic design. COM3 assesses requirements, develops schematics and PCB layouts, and plans prototyping to connect sensors, interfaces and systems, with validation criteria defined for the intended application and its operating environment.

FROM REQUIREMENTS TO CIRCUIT

Engineering for every stage of your board.

Work starts with the intended use. Electrical requirements, interfaces, dimensions and operating conditions guide design decisions and determine what the prototype needs to demonstrate.

Schematic design

Definition of power, processing, input, output and communication circuits. Component selection considers requirements, availability and operating conditions.

PCB layout

Component placement and trace routing to meet electrical and mechanical constraints. Manufacturing and assembly files are included within the agreed scope.

Electronic prototypes

Planning the fabrication and assembly of evaluation units. Prototype testing helps identify adjustments before a possible production run.

System integration

Assessment of connections to sensors, actuators, equipment and platforms. Interfaces, protocols and any firmware development are defined according to the application.

ENGINEERING TOOLS

We design with Altium Designer.

We use Altium Designer to develop our electronic projects, from schematic design to PCB layout. The workflow brings circuits, components and documentation together to support project reviews.

POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS

Electronics shaped by field requirements.

These examples illustrate applications that may be assessed within a project. Architecture and feasibility depend on the requirements of each operation.

Sensors and data acquisition

Boards for reading and conditioning signals and transmitting measurements. Power, accuracy, sampling frequency and connectivity are assessed together.

Field signals
Custom PCB
Operational system

Illustrative workflow. Interfaces and functions are defined for each project.

HOW THE PROJECT MOVES FORWARD

Clear stages. Documented decisions.

Each stage needs to answer a practical question: what the board must do, how it will be built and which results support moving forward.

  1. Requirements and feasibility

    We assess the application, interfaces, power supply and environment. Deliverables, constraints and acceptance criteria guide the proposal.

  2. Electronic design

    We develop the architecture, schematics and layout. Technical reviews check design decisions before the planned prototype files are released.

  3. Prototyping

    We organize the units and resources needed for testing. Fabrication and assembly may involve partners, subject to assessment and the contracted scope.

  4. Validation and next steps

    We check functions and interfaces against agreed criteria. Results, limitations and necessary adjustments guide a new revision or production stage.

Before you begin.

What does PCB mean?

PCB stands for Printed Circuit Board. It supports electronic components and provides the electrical connections between them through conductive layers.

Can I start with just an idea?

Yes. Describe the problem you want to solve and where the device will be used. An initial assessment helps identify requirements, missing information and the feasibility of moving forward with development.

Does the project include manufacturing and firmware?

These deliverables depend on the assessment and proposal. Fabrication and assembly may be carried out by partners. Firmware can be included when defined in the scope, with agreed functions, tests and responsibilities.

LET’S UNDERSTAND YOUR APPLICATION

What should your next board solve?

Share your idea, an existing board or the requirements you have. An initial conversation helps define what needs assessment before a development proposal.
