Electronic Product Development Capabilities

System Specification

Mercutech can assist in defining and writing the product specifications. The electronic components to best fit your cost, functional and performance targets will be recommended.

Embedded Software Development

Mercutech has extensive microcontroller software development expertise using Microchip family of PIC processors. Other microcontrollers can also be supported.

Hardware Development

The hardware development leads up to a trial version prototype according to your specification, alternatively a test station.

Design, layout and prototype manufacturing of printed circuit boards, mechanical parts, enclosure and front panel design are usually included.

By combining electronic, software and mechanical development Mercutech is able to deliver you a turn-key reference design for your embedded application, ready for production.

• Reduce time-to-market
• Reduce operating cost and risk
  (especially when South Africa's low rates of skilled expertise can be exploited)
• Expand your resources as and when needed
• Add expertise to your development team that is unavailable in-house
• Supplement your own resources to relieve pressure on critical path tasks
• Free your internal resources for other purposes

From Hegel: Philosophy of Nature - Electricity is the pure purpose of the form, which frees itself from it: the form which is beginning to give up its indifference, for electricity is the immediate emergency, or the existence which derives from the form or is still conditioned by it, or not yet the dissolution of the form itself, but the superficial process in which the differences leave the form but are still conditioned and not yet independent of it . . .
