SW/ Firmware Design

Firmware Design & Development

Hardware is only part of the equation of an embedded system design. Firmware designers need to bring the hardware to life with the coding to make it all work. The process can be sped up by making use of existing driver libraries and sample code offered by the manufacturer. Still, developing firmware is a time-consuming process, and a single misplaced line of code can result in hours of debugging. 

Testing & Acceptance

Before an Embedded System design is approved for manufacturing or deployment, it has to pass stringent tests. Not only does it need to pass functionality test cases, but the circuit must also be tested for reliability, particularly when operating near its limits. 

JHM supports board bring and various testing for client during product development especially JHM will execute various bench testing according to product requirements or specifications. Besides, we works with third party reliability team to support any reliability specific requirements from client. JHM also has manufacturing test development capabilities, where we build In-Circuit Test (ICT) and Functional Tester (FT) for production manufacturing testing.

Reliability Testing

JHM support product reliability testing as part of development cycle where various stress tests are carried out per product reliability testing requirements specified by customer. It helps to predict future behavior during the complete life cycle of the product, component or material under used conditions testing. In combination with the measurement of relevant parameters and the use of appropriate analytical methods, it is also possible to identify failure modes.
