Project Examples

ODM/Product Fulfillment · Designed dev kit for major European semiconductor firm · Post-design validation, provided turnkey fulfillment services through our CM relationships · Another client had a board-level vendor go EOL and we were uniquely able to negotiate IP release and provide ongoing fulfillment services		Product Line Consolidation · Analyzed over 5,000 SKUs to create new product platform concept for over 10 product lines · Consolidated 25 years of technology products into standardized platform · Reduced complexity and for manufacturing, test, software, purchasing, inventory control, and board design · Recommended EOL for certain features and low-volume, low-margin products · Supported transition from in-house manufacturing to EMS
Venture Engineering · Some founder or seed-funded clients require assistance with feasibility analysis, initial architecture planning, and credible engineering estimates · Nuvation Design Reports have been found to improve probability of securing capital, add significantly to early stage valuation, and accelerate time-to-market		SWAT Teams · One complex client design had suffered through 3 re-spins over 8 months and was still stuck in a logjam · We found a bug in a MCU vendor’s microcode and then progressed through remaining bring-up steps in a total time of under 3 weeks · Higher-level functionality and Signal Integrity problems were identified and corrected · We have excellent “swoopers” and tight relationships with the major semiconductor companies which often enables us to resolve perplexing issues in heroic fashion
