How To Engage

Customer Remarks

We have been extremely impressed with Nuvation’s design capabilities, methodology, and execution. This is one of the first production releases utilizing our most recent digital media processor based on DaVinci technology. Nuvation brought together system architecture, mixed-signal board design, FPGA logic development, embedded Linux driver development, DSP coding, and turnkey product realization services in a truly seamless fashion. They have been great to work with and we hope our OEMs will be able to leverage Nuvation’s design services capabilities as appropriate.
