Real-Time Embedded Software Development

We have a long history of real-time embedded software development.

Recent embedded development projects include a home cordless telephone, a UHF / paging transmitter for alarm systems, and a man overboard direction finder.
 
We have the equipment and engineering  expertise to help you develop your embedded project. We have experience with Motorola, Nec, Mitsubishi and Hitachi microprocessors. All projects for small microprocessors are written from the ground up with no operating system for maximum performance with the smallest code footprint enabling low cost microcontrollers to be used. For custom embedded software development you've come to the right place.
 
Considering Embedded Linux?
We have considerable linux experience as well as embedded experience. If you're considering an embedded linux project please call us.
