AIS helps customers with the specification, development and design of electronic systems. We start by providing knowledgeable system design engineers to work with your internal design team. This helps expand your resource and knowledge base during the critical implementation phase, making it easier to hit aggressive time-to-market milestones. More specifically, some of the ways we can help shorten time-to-market include: • Helping you look into integration options or lower cost alternatives for designs that need to be economized, but your internal staff doesn’t have time to do it • Dealing with situations where you have a clear understanding of your target application and technical requirements, but need an expert designer to implement your plan • Working with start-ups that have funding in the bank but a shortage of engineers • Filling the need for customers who need a full service partner who can take your requirements and implement the design from the ground up, build a prototype and get you ready for volume manufacturing • Providing a full range of services such as technology to application mapping, reference designs, feasibility studies, design reviews, design consolidations, full turnkey design and sustaining engineering
