Hardware Services Offerings

• Schematics Review: We assure schematics are thoroughly checked by

doing a detailed review of every interface and peripherals connected to

FSL devices.

• Layout Review: We perform thorough placement and layout reviews to

ensure the design follows Freescale recommendations, design guidelines

and standard PCB development rules.

• Software Preparation and Board-Bring Up: We can make any required

modifications to the bootloader and kernel and bring up the system.

Typically, we send one or two engineers on-site (with complementary

skills) for a week to support an on-site board bring-up.

• Full Board Design and Prototype Build: We can design and layout a

custom board and deliver prototype builds.
