xogenus prototype development
Xogenus (X.oh.Jee.nus) is a contract design services firm based in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
What We Do
xogenus specializes in the development of turn-key hardware solutions for the high-tech
industry. While our primary focus is in datacom/telecom system design, we also have
experience with the design of analog/digital audio and data acquisition systems.
Our Skills
Our capabilities include:
- high speed digital design
- analog front end design
- board level design
- system architecture and specification development
- optimized PWB layout
- FPGA development, including IP core development and implementation
- user application software
- embedded firmware
- custom mechanical test fixtures for prototype and manufacturing
How we work
Xogenus can work from your company's existing design requirements specification to
create working prototypes. We can also help you define your requirements and provide
you with the necessary documentation.
We develop prototypes at our site using either our own design tools, or the EDA toolset
of your choice. We are experienced users of ViewLogic, Orcad, Accel (Protel) PCAD,
Cadence Allegor, PADS and others.
We ca co-ordinate with your purchasing and manufacturing departments to ensure that the
transition from prototype to production goes smoothly. We can also take care of purchasing
and prototype manufacturing for you if you do not have the resources in-house.
Experience: What we have done
Our designers have completed projects for many leading companies in the high-tech industry.
