Software Development

The software and firmware in your product are what make your product function the way your customers expect it to. Because embedded systems require extra reliability, AB Tech Solution is careful to have a system to be able to track your software at every version release. All software developed by AB Tech Solution is subject to peer review as well as a rigorous design review. AB Tech Solutions will follow your software requirements practices, or we will code to best practices for the type of system being designed.

Do you need an embedded operating system? Most embedded systems work on a simple infinite loop, responding to events. Does your product require the hard real-time performance of an RTOS, or are your requirements such that a scheduler with some utilities would suffice? Embedded Linux, Embedded Windows, VxWorks, and many other commercial operating systems are familiar to us. Does your product require Internet communication protocols, such as TCP, UDP, FTP, and so forth? How about simpler serial communications, such as I2C, SPI, or modem protocols? Going wireless with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or Zigbee? Regardless of the complexity or simplicity of your product, AB Tech Solution can deliver the most cost-effective software and/or firmware for your development dollars.

Embedded Device Development

Embedded systems have special requirements. Often they are deployed in remote and hard-to-reach locations so reliability and robustness are tantamount to successful design. Engineers at AB Tech Solution are experts in the design of embedded systems. Our hardware and firmware engineers will work with your team or we will be your team to develop successful embedded systems for your customer. And we will do this all being on time and within your budget. We will help you select components, design the hardware, implement the necessary software or firmware, and will even design the printed circuit board or you.

The engineers at AB Tech Solution have experience in 8- to 32-bit microprocessors from all manufacturers. We have expertise in all major programming languages, especially languages like C and C++, and we can even design, if necessary, a PC-based program to complement or control your embedded design.

AB Tech Solution has experience with FPGAs and other system-on-a-chip (SoC) technologies. We are experts with Texas Instruments, Microchip, Motorola, and ARM-based processors. We specialize in input/ output intensive systems. And we have developed several systems for remote communications with a variety of communications protocols. AB Tech Solution can do the entire job for you, or we can work with your team to provide extra help that they need in a pinch. Your bottom line will be positively impacted.

Let's look now at each individual area of our embedded system service.

Component selection

AB Tech Solution will take your requirements and select the most cost-effective microprocessor for your system. Our engineers will look at a variety of options for you and do what's in your best interest not in what is easiest for us. Does your product require an FPGA? Is it best served by using a digital signal processor? Or is it best to use a low-power eight bit microcontroller? We select what's best for you. We will also help you select the appropriate passive components for your system.

Product Development

AB Tech Solution is a leading company offering customized product development services. We specialize in design and development (up to commercialization stage) for various industries.

We specialize in research-based analysis of the clients' needs prior to developing and implementing new projects – varied and complex for companies big or small. Our team of handpicked experts commit themselves in delivering quality, innovative, and at the same time, cost-effective product development services.

While developing new products we carry out in-depth research and analysis, followed by complete project execution with steps including:

• Requirements collection,
• Product design document,
• Development,
• Verification and Validation,
• Manufacturer setup,
• Product testing setup,
• Product manufacturing setup,
• Product Quality control,
• Product future enhancement

Handheld Development

Handheld communicators, whether they be for the HART protocol, or for monitoring fieldbus traffic, have stringent requirements: very low power consumption, simple and human-friendly to operation, and extremely rugged packaging to survive the environmental hazards they are routinely subjected to.

AB Tech Solution engineers have experience using as well as designing handheld terminals for industrial automation and telecommunications businesses. They have a special appreciation for the need to be able to quickly and easily connect, use, and disconnect a handheld terminal in the less-than-ideal environments they are used in.

AB Tech Solution will use our unique perspective to help you specify and implement a handheld terminal that will satisfy your needs and earn it a reputation in your market niche.

Hardware development

AB Tech Solution hardware engineers will prepare schematics, prototype your system for you and, will subject your design to any new liability and stress tests necessary to ensure a robust product. Our engineers are experts at FPGA and programmable device implementations. If requested, we will perform at FMEA on your design.

PCB development

Printed circuit boards for embedded systems require special consideration. The printed circuit board for embedded designs must balance electrical noise, heat dissipation, and mechanical restrictions all at the same time. AB Tech Solutions layout artists are expert in balancing all of these somewhat competing factors. We offer single and multiple layer board layout and routing services, and will provide you with a complete set of documentation that will allow you to have your PC board manufactured at your facility, or from any qualified vendor. AB Tech Solutions layout artist are familiar with rose compliance and all regulatory requirements.

Technical Staffing

Sometimes you just need extra expertise on a temporary basis. AB Tech Solution's engineers and technicians are able to perform work at your direction on a temporary basis. As employees of AB Tech Solution, you do not need to worry about the tax consequences of hiring these temporary workers.

Project Management

Sometimes you have a potentially lucrative opportunity land in your lap, but you don't have the resources to manage what comes your way without impacting other projects. Let AB Tech Solution's experienced project engineers manage the project for you. We provide complete accounting and accountability for getting the work done in an effective and efficient manner.
