"Reliable systems depend on reliable measurements"
We work with a wide range of sensors and transducers, developing the electronics and firmware required to interface them reliably with embedded systems. Rather than treating sensors as standalone components, we design complete signal acquisition chains that ensure accurate, stable, and repeatable measurements in real-world conditions.
Our experience spans analogue, digital, and mixed-signal devices, including environmental, motion, acoustic, optical, and industrial sensors. Each application presents different challenges, from low-level signal extraction and noise rejection to calibration, linearisation, and temperature compensation.
Reliable sensor integration depends on robust front-end design. We develop analogue conditioning circuits tailored to each sensor, including amplification, filtering, impedance matching, and protection.
Careful attention is given to noise, grounding, and layout to ensure signal integrity from the sensing element through to the ADC.
Sensors are interfaced using appropriate techniques depending on their characteristics, including:
We ensure that the transition from analogue domain to digital data is accurate and well-controlled.
Measurement systems are designed with calibration and long-term stability in mind. This includes offset and gain correction, linearisation, and compensation for environmental factors.
Where required, calibration routines are integrated into firmware or supporting applications.
Sensor systems are designed to operate reliably in real environments, not just under ideal conditions. This includes consideration of:
