Welcome to Eyes Wide Open Design Consulting

The task of electronic hardware design has become more complex, shrinking silicon geometries, increasing signal edge rates, multi-gigabit signalling speeds, and explosion of supply voltages have all added to the Hardware Engineers list of concerns. While there is an appreciation that Signal and Power Integrity (SI/PI) are important aspects of the design cycle, shrinking project timescales mean that these tasks are often “squeezed” for time or worse still not completed and Hardware Engineers rely on “rules of thumb” or what worked the last time. Often these approaches lead to expensive delays, reliability issues or worse still product recalls. Also poor SI and PI are often the root cause of issues with EMC both Emissions and susceptibility, which in turn can delay product introduction.

It is very expensive to invest in Signal and Power Integrity Analysis Tools and the expertise to use them effectively; this is where Eyes Wide Open Design Consulting can help by providing: -

  • SI/PI expertise in a timely manner as and when your project requires
  • Routing and termination guidelines for your design for efficient PCB layout
  • Power Delivery Network (PDN) guidelines for component selection and placement
  • Post layout verification simulations for both Power and Signal Integrity
  • Design debug for SI/PI and EMC issues

Eyes Wide Open Design Consulting will help your company deliver your hardware product by providing the necessary expertise in the area of SI/PI and EMC in an outsourced/sub-contracted Engineering Services model. Using our many years of Hardware Engineering design in both high volume, high reliability and mil-aero environments we have the expertise to provide cost effective and practical solutions to your SI/PI and EMC issues.
