Our Values

Engaging us

It all starts with a discussion. We are looking for projects with opportunity to deliver outstanding value. We will get to know you and understand your challenges, budget, what a home run looks like. We do not do elaborate proposals or share ideas before we are engaged.

Process

We believe that designs emerge through the development process. The beginning of the project is the point of maximum ignorance and wide-open options. Creating an MVP allows us to better understand tradeoffs and look for value that may be difficult to see at the start. We almost always uncover opportunities and issues that were not apparent at the inception of the project. We take this agile approach to de-risk early, accelerate development, and get to a better result.

Tradeoffs

Power electronics design involves managing tradeoffs: Currents, voltages, thermal, resonances, ZVS/ZCS, emissions, susceptibility, dv/dt, di/dt, magnetics, losses, safety, packaging, cost. We are experienced in balancing these attributes to achieve highly optimized system level performance.
