Deliverables
What You Receive in a Embedded Systems Engagement
Deliverables are defined up front and reviewed at each stage so program status is always verifiable.
- Bare-metal and RTOS firmware architecture
- Device drivers for I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, PMBus, and USB
- Board-support packages and bootloaders
- Automation and manufacturing test firmware
How we work
Where This Service Fits in the Program Flow
This discipline plugs into the same ten-stage development process used across all ChipEdge.net programs.
- 01
Discovery and Requirements
Technical intake, constraint capture, and a written requirements baseline you can approve.
- 02
System Architecture
Block diagrams, power tree, interface map, and trade studies for silicon and topology choices.
- 03
Schematic and Component Selection
Schematic capture with lifecycle-aware part selection and reviewed BOM structure.
- 04
PCB Layout and Analysis
Stack-up, escape routing, controlled impedance, and signal- and power-integrity review.
- 05
Firmware and Embedded Development
Bring-up firmware, drivers, telemetry, and automation for validation and production test.
- 06
Prototype Fabrication
Fabrication and assembly coordination, kitting, and documented build packages.
- 07
Board Bring-Up
Power-on sequencing checks, interface enumeration, and structured debug with issue tracking.
- 08
Validation and Qualification
Electrical characterization, margin testing, compliance support, and environmental checks.
- 09
Manufacturing Transfer
DFM and DFT closure, test fixtures, documentation, and contract-manufacturer onboarding.
- 10
Production Support
Yield analysis, failure analysis, part obsolescence management, and sustaining engineering.
