Concept Development
paramita can help develop your concept - whether through brainstorming, literature searches, or by working with you to develop a project plan. paramita typically uses a 'four document' approach to the specification development for an initial stage these are:
- Concept and Requirements Document - a written specification
- System Diagram - a block diagram that describes system functionality
- Circuit Diagram - an electronic Schematic
- Packaging Plan - describes how electronics may fit into the caseworks
Prototype Builds - 'works like'
Proving a concept can be the most difficult part of a design. paramita ltd will help you to quickly develop a 'works like' prototype. Based on the System Diagram, using modules and hand assembled prototype PCBs, the focus is to demonstrate functionality. This demonstration can be great for getting a feel of your product before going to the next step; the 'looks like' prototype.
Electronic System Development - 'looks like'
Build and test the schematics, tolerance analysis, and Bill of Materials. Using OrCAD, Altium Designer or gEDA toolchains paramita aims to develop a robust design for delivery of the Circuit Diagram and working PCBs that fit with the Packaging plan.
Into Production
Developing production test schemes, working with the manufacturer to design for manufacture throughout the development process, finding cost savings in the Bill Of Materials, from day one to successful product.
PCB Layout & Proof
Supporting your design by developing printed circuit boards, based on the Circuit Diagram produced in the development phase paramita will produce boards that fit with the packaging plan and mechanical specifications.
Prototype Builds - Looks like
The final stage before manufacture, small or medium numbers of PCBs are built that fit the finalised mechanical design. These are then assembled into demonstration units for showing to investors, clients, journalists and for running your pilot tests.
