Schematic & architecture
Concept design, component selection, schematic capture, and worst-case analysis for automotive ECUs.
Automotive-grade ECU hardware — from schematic capture and PCB layout through prototyping, EMC, and design verification.
Automotive hardware lives in a brutal environment — temperature extremes, vibration, EMC interference, and a 15-year service life. Designing ECUs that survive this environment, while meeting cost and weight targets, requires hardware engineers who understand both the silicon and the standards.
At Proaktive Services, we deliver hardware engineering services across the full ECU lifecycle — from concept and architecture through schematic, layout, prototype bring-up, and design verification — for body, chassis, powertrain, and ADAS control units.
Concept design, component selection, schematic capture, and worst-case analysis for automotive ECUs.
Multi-layer PCB layout, signal-integrity-aware routing, prototype assembly, and first-article verification.
Design-for-EMC, ESD protection, and pre-compliance testing for automotive standards (CISPR 25, ISO 11452, ISO 7637).
Bench testing, environmental stress, electrical validation, and design-of-experiments to confirm robust hardware behavior.
Our engineers bring practical experience across the leading toolchains:
Every design starts with the AEC-Q stress profile, not consumer assumptions — reliability built in, not bolted on.
Our HW engineers work alongside our SW team — boards designed with debug, calibration, and diagnostics in mind.
Pre-compliance testing built into the design loop — fewer late-stage surprises before final certification.
