Product definition - Product definition is the foundation for the entire project.
Without a stable product definition your project will likely suffer from feature creep,
missed deadlines, and budget problems. TotalEmbedded has both assisted and authored numerous
product specifications that have provided a stable platform for project planning and development.

Project planning - The project plan should provide accurate measurable milestones for your project.
Timelines slip, budgets overrun, people get sick, mistakes are made - Is the perfect project one where none
of this happens? No, we believe the perfect project is one where a solid product definition enables an
accurate project plan that provides the most accurate visibility to your true budget and timeline.
TotalEmbedded has years of experience which enables us to avoid common problems in project planning.

Circuit/PCB design - There are many potential pitfalls in the printed circuit board (PCB)
design process. TotalEmbedded understands these pitfalls and has what is necessary to mitigate those risks.
All of our boards are hand routed by experienced engineers who pay attention to EVERY detail as the
board is designed. We also have well established relationships with PCB manufacturers which lower
costs and helps guarantee quality.

FPGA CPLD ASIC - TotalEmbedded offers design and synthesis services for programmable logic
devices. Programmable logic devices come in a wide array packages ranging from very simple PLDs to
large complex FPGAs and CPLDs. Authoring programmable logic is writing software that becomes hardware.
TotalEmbedded can leverage years of experience and our existing designs to create a solution to meet
your needs.

CAD/CAM services - TotalEmbedded can provide CAD/CAM services for any type of application.
We provide services ranging from solid models of circuit boards to simple floor plan layouts to enclosure
designs. We can make modifications to existing design files or create new designs using a wide range of tools
including Solidworks, Mechanical Desktop, Autocad, etc.

Device drivers - Many people might consider device drivers part of standard software
development. We however, believe that device driver development is much more specialized; it is
the marriage of hardware knowledge and software skills. This task is the heart of embedded systems
programming. Device drivers are the foundation and building blocks of your software application.
It takes years of hardware experience as well as years of software experience to develop strong
device drivers. TotalEmbedded has the experience and equipment necessary to author the highest
quality device drivers to meet your needs.

Real Time Embedded software - TotalEmbedded understands the software development process
completely. More than just users of software development tools, we have designed the tools themselves.
This experience coupled with our years of software and hardware development enables us to provide
unparalleled embedded software design services. TotalEmbedded has the experience necessary to
author embedded software to meet your needs.

Embedded RTOS, WindowsCE, VxWorks, Linux, NetBSD - TotalEmbedded more than has experience
with embedded RTOSs - we have helped design them. We made core contributions to the WindowsCE operating
system as well as authored development tools used to create WindowsCE. Beyond WindowsCE we have
embedded Linux and NetBSD and designed several VxWorks platforms. TotalEmbedded is an expert at
embedded RTOS systems and their applications.

Test and debug - There is no formula for debugging any given problem, they are all unique.
Testing and debugging real-time embedded systems is more challenging because you cannot impact the operation
of the system while testing and debugging. If you impact the system in your test and debug process you
cannot be guaranteed the true quality of the system when not under test. TotalEmbedded has over 25 years
combined experience solving the most difficult problems.

Manufacturing - TotalEmbedded offers prototype and low volume manufacturing services. We
believe that early generation designs should be hand assembled by qualified engineers because
hand assembly is part of the design and debug process. We also have very strong relationships with
high volume manufacturers which we can leverage to make your manufacturing process seamless when your
product reaches production stages.

PCB Repair and rework - Inevitably, design problems arise. Usually small, but sometimes
large, amounts of rework are necessary. Whatever the case, TotalEmbedded can provide the necessary
services to correct the issue while maintaining system integrity and ensuring the test process stays
free of irregularities. Our scope of rework capabilities include many techniques unthought to even
exist. We also specialize in sub-miniature rework and prototyping

Reverse engineering - Quick and accurate reverse engineering is not something that can
be taught. It only comes from years of industry experience and design work. TotalEmbedded can
accurately, completely, and quickly disassemble most anything, document it, and reassemble it with
absolutely no impact. We have successfully reverse engineered proprietary systems of all types
including RF systems, advanced modulation techniques, general embedded systems, custom protocols,
and custom hardware interfaces.
