Electronics & Embedded Systems in Schaan

Electronics & embedded systems — Schaan

Developing a connected device, designing an electronic board or programming a microcontroller calls for specialised skills. From idea to prototype, an electronics engineer designs the hardware and the embedded software that runs it. On Helplease, you describe your project (intended function, constraints, volume, deadline) and the electronics providers in Schaan are notified of your request.

What the service includes

• Board design: electronic schematic and printed circuit board (PCB) routing.
• Prototyping: building and testing a first working unit.
• Firmware: programming the microcontrollers and the embedded software.
• Integration and testing: sensors, connectivity, power consumption and validation.

Key points to choose well

Describe the function

Explain what the device must do, its inputs and outputs and its operating environment.

State the constraints

Power, size, battery life, target cost or standards: these constraints shape the design.

Think about volume

A one-off prototype and a mass production are not designed the same way. State the target volume.

What affects the price

• the complexity of the board and the firmware;
• the number of components and functions;
• the number of prototyping iterations;
• the testing and validation required;
• the planned production volume.

The rate is agreed with the worker based on these elements.

Frequently asked questions

Can you start from an idea?

Yes, a simple specification is enough to begin the feasibility study.

Do you deliver a working prototype?

Yes, depending on the project. State whether you want a prototype or a pre-series.

Do you help with production?

Often yes, by preparing the manufacturing files. State the volume wanted in Schaan.

What information should I give?

The intended function, the technical constraints, the volume and your deadline.
