Why go through the steep learning curve and the frustration of semiconductor vendors' salesmen who will sell you inappropriate and outrageously expensive development systems and then not be able to provide the backup, when you could take advantage of our FPGA design expertise and fine tuned design system instead?

We have years of experience in innovative electronic design and can offer a cost effective bureaux service for Actel FPGAs, or others. Even if you only need one.

Your existing discrete logic circuits may be implemented in 44pin, 68pin or 84pin PLCC packages which may be socketed for easy prototyping. Most other families force you to develop an expensive SMD pcb before the chip is proven and the pinout stable. 7400 or 4000 series logic rarely convert exactly into FPGA internal device structures and the manufacturer's equivalent libraries are rarely that either, often leading to weeks of debugging and redesign. Macro generated logic blocks and VHDL are inefficient and difficult to debug. Let our knowledge of the many pitfalls work to get your product to market quicker.

We have a library of circuit designs used in our own products especially suited for control surfaces and human interfacing for electronic instrumentation and control systems.

• Display drivers
• Switch scanning
• Encoder scanning
• Switch debouncing
• ADC interfacing
• Serial Data routing
• Microprocessor bus or port interfacing
• Z80 Family peripherals
