WHERE HARDWARE MEETS SOFTWARE

Electronic Design Services

From Circuit Concept to Production-Ready Hardware

Synectic's electronic design team develops the hardware and software behind your product, from PCB schematics and embedded firmware to a board that's ready to manufacture at scale.

RELIABLE, MANUFACTURABLE ELECTRONICS

Circuits Built to Perform and Built to Manufacture

Synectic offers electronic design services that take a product from circuit concept to a fully validated, manufacturable board. Our electronic design team develops schematics, PCB layouts, and firmware together, so the hardware and the code that runs it are designed as one system, not two deliverables stitched together after the fact.

Our electronic design team works directly with mechanical engineering on enclosure constraints, thermal considerations, and assembly requirements from the first session, so the circuit design and the physical product are built to fit each other

Integrated With Mechanical Design

Our electronic design team works alongside mechanical engineers from day one, so enclosure and assembly constraints shape the circuit design instead of fighting it later.

Path to Manufacturing

Through Mack Technologies, part of the Mack Group family, your electronics move from validated design into PCB assembly and full-scale production without changing partners.

Documented Testing & Validation

Every electronic design is tested against approved protocols and backed by a documented test report, including IEC 60601-1 compliance for medical devices specifically.

WHAT WE DO

What Our Electronic Design Services Cover

Two disciplines working as one. Hardware covers the physical circuit and board, software covers the code that brings it to life. Both are developed by the same team, in parallel.

Hardware

PCB Design

Our electronic design team builds complete schematics and trace layouts, then generates the Gerber files that a board house would need for fabrication. Every layout accounts for the manufacturing process it's headed toward, not just the circuit's electrical performance.​

Embedded Systems

Embedded systems pair dedicated hardware with the software that runs on it, designed together as one integrated unit instead of two separate parts. We tune each design against size, cost, and performance, prioritizing whichever constraint matters most for your application.

Testing & Validation

We test every design against approved protocols and produce a fully documented test report covering performance, safety, and EMI/EMC compliance. For electronic medical devices, that includes validation against IEC 60601-1, the technical standard for electrical safety and performance.

Software

Firmware Development​

Our team writes and tests the low-level code that runs directly on your hardware, built and validated against your specific circuit design rather than a generic template. That close coupling is what makes embedded systems reliable in the field, not just in the lab.​

App & Software Development

We build the companion software your hardware needs to be useful, from a simple mobile app that sends commands to a device, to full desktop software that integrates with existing systems. Scope is set by what your product actually requires, not a one-size-fits-all template.​

UX Design

We design the digital interface for how users actually interact with your device on screen, whether that's a touchscreen, a companion app, or a simple status display. This is distinct from the physical ergonomics our product design team handles; the two are designed together, not in isolation.​

THE DESIGN PROCESS

From Requirements to Validated Hardware in Four Steps

Every electronic design engagement follows the same sequence, moving from what the system needs to do to a board that’s tested and ready to manufacture.

Requirements & Architecture

We define what the circuit and system need to do, and map out the overall hardware and software architecture before any schematic work begins.

Schematic Design

Our electronic design team selects components and designs the circuit itself, documented in schematics that show how every part interacts.

PCB Layout & Prototyping

The schematic becomes a physical board layout, and we build first-run prototypes to confirm the design works as intended.

Testing & Validation

We test against approved protocols and produce a documented test report, validating both performance and safety before handoff.

MACK TECHNOLOGIES

Your Electronics, Manufactured at Scale

Once your design is validated, Mack Technologies takes it into production. As part of the Mack Group family, they bring dedicated electronics manufacturing capabilities that our design work builds directly toward.

Circuit Board Assembly

SMT and through-hole assembly, built to your board's exact specification. We handle everything from low-volume prototype runs to full production quantities, so the same partner that builds your first boards can scale with you. Every assembly is built against the documentation your electronic design team provides, not a generic template.

System Integration & Configuration

Full box builds and system-level assembly, not just bare boards. We configure and tests complete systems, including cabling, enclosures, and any subassemblies your product needs beyond the circuit board itself. Your product arrives as a finished, ready-to-ship unit, not a collection of parts you still have to assemble.

Design Support

Manufacturing engineers review your design before it reaches the line, catching issues while they're still cheap to fix. This mirrors the same DFM discipline we apply earlier in the process, just from the manufacturing side of the equation. Feedback flows back to our electronic design team, so a fix at this stage improves the design itself, not just this one production run.

Global Supply Chain Management

Component sourcing and inventory management across our US and Mexico facilities. That footprint gives your project more flexibility when a part goes on allocation or a single-source component becomes hard to find. Inventory is managed against your actual production schedule, not ordered in a single lump sum you have to store and track yourself.

Advanced Test Operations

Functional test, in-circuit test, and environmental testing before your product ships. These are built into the production line itself, so every unit is verified the same way, not just a sample batch. The result is a documented test record for each board, not just a pass or fail on the shop floor.

Direct Fulfillment

Packaging and shipping straight to your customers, with no extra stop in between. we package and ship finished units directly, so your product doesn't change hands one more time before it reaches the people who ordered it. That's one less stop, and one less place for something to get lost or delayed.

THE FULL JOURNEY

Electronic Design is One Part of the Journey

Electronic design happens alongside product design, not after it. The same Synectic team carries your electronics from first schematic through prototyping and into full-scale manufacturing.

Need a partner for the full journey?

Electronic design is part of product design, one phase within a complete product development engagement at Synectic. If you need a team to own the process from strategy through manufacturing, see how we work end-to-end.
