Product Development Innovation
Product development by its nature demands a wide variety of skills. Innovation and creativity are key to a products success but this should be linked to the more practical aspects such as Design for Manufacture. Design Tools Soft Edge Technologies employ industry standard design tools for customer focussed solutions:
- Ebbedded Software Tools (Keil, CCS, ARM ADS, Gnu C++)
- PC Software Tools (Visual Studio, Borland, Java)
- HDL (VHDL, Xilinx ISE)
- EDA (OrCAD Capture, Layout, Pspice)
- CAD (Pro/Engineer)
- Processor Architectures -
- 8-bit (8051 family/PIC family)
- 32-bit (ARM, StrongARM, Xscale)
- DSP (Analog Devices and Texas Instruments)
- Data Interfaces -
