Featured

Electronic Design

Our design expertise includes requirements capture, electronics architecture, PCB layout, prototyping, high-speed digital, RF design, and testing & verification.

Embedded Software Development

We specialise in embedded systems and have expertise in C/C++ and Python. We work with real-time operating systems (RTOS), embedded Linux, networking protocols, and device drivers.

Feasibility Studies

Our independent consultancy can help you gain perspective on your product. We can provide advice on architecture, identify technical risks and mitigation strategies, and provide manufacturing and certification cost estimates.

Design Reviews and Troubleshooting

Having a fresh pair of eyes on your design can save you time and money in the long run. We can subject your design to rigorous review, identify areas of concern, and make suggestions for future improvement.

Compliance Support

Compliance is an essential element of every electronics and software project. Some areas we can support you in include CE marking, functional safety, FCC support for the USA, UL and MET mark compliance.

Our Clients

“ Adam and the team at Ripcord have provided a very professional and diligent service in the complex design of our new hardware solution. The project has required flexibility whilst the specification was being finalised, and patience with re-working the design upon our request. The communication and time management has always been excellent, and Ripcord will continue to be a valued supplier to Bodytrak in the future.’’
