Electronics Design Services
The design, layout and operation of power electronics is a forte of Marcotte Enterprises. Since 1991 we have designed circuits for the demanding plasma TV technology where high frequency square waves of 200V must be generated to drive large capacitive and loads with minimum resistance, and inductance. From concept to production can help you specify a design, and we'll recommend mechanical configurations and interconnects, working directly with you every step of the way. Whether your need is a small power supply or a high-power switching application, Marcotte Enterprises can assist you.
- Power supply design including power factor correction
- Logic interfaces to power electronics
- Isolation circuits
- UL Safety and EMI analysis and reduction
- PC board layout
- Digital-to-Analog DAC controlled circuits
- Troubleshooting and product support
We layout printed circuit boards using Cadsoft's Eagle Layout Editor. It is sufficient to meet the needs of smaller companies and requires only a small investment. We also have experience with Viewlogic for schematics and Pads for layout and have recently evaluated Altium Designer. All schematic and layout packages are quite similar, so we can easily use your preferred tool suite.
As a designer of high voltage electronics (up to 500V), we have the experience to design a circuit board that meets your spacing, isolation, current, resistive and inductive requirements. We know the importance of maintaining clearance and creepage distances for reliability and safety. Other complexities like transformer design, isolated and/or floating ground planes, low inductance connections, electrical and magnetic fields, parallel mosfet driving arrangements, digital to analog conversion, analog to digital conversion, pulse with modulators, power factor correction, etc. are all within our field of expertise.
