Being a "service bureau," Alpha-C can design a wide range of rigid and flexible circuits for many different industries. We have extensive knowledge and experience with the following technologies: Digital Circuits, Analog Circuits, Digital/Analog Mixed, RF, High-Speed and Controlled Impedance. Whether you are using through hole technology or fine pitch BGA technology, we have the needed hardware, software and experience to meet your needs. Our knowledgeable designers implement DFM (Design for Manufacturability) and DFA (Design for Assembly) techniques on every single design. This ensures that your project will be of the highest possible quality, which in turn will keep your production costs low. We keep you informed every step of the way, from part placement to final routing and documentation. Designing for the Future With over seventeen years of experience in specialty products such as Digital, RF, Analog, Flexible circuits and mixed technologies, our design team is committed to total customer satisfaction: we pay attention to your special requirements to turn your ideas into design reality. By utilizing our extensive manufacturing knowledge at the design stage, we reduce cycle times - saving you money, order after order. We can also perform Design-For-Manufacturability (DFM) analysis on your completed designs. Cirexx currently has design centers in Santa Clara, California and Greenfield, Massachusetts. Questions?

Schematic Capture Netlist Conversion PCB Layout Mechanical CAD (2D & 3D) Design & Drafting Engineering Personnel (Temp & Perm) Quality We look at the ENTIRE project. Our extensive assembly experience is reflected in all of our designs. We are not just concerned with making connections, but making a board that is easier to manufacture. Experience & Speed A combination that is hard to beat. ACI has logged over 1000 designs since 1989, using state-of-the-art tools. We continue to stay up to date with the rapidly changing technologies in the electronics industry. Our projects have included high power circuits, audio & analog designs, high speed digital circuits (2 gb) with Controlled Length, Balanced Differential Pairs, hundreds of Matched Length nets, Embedded Microstrip & Controlled Impedance, as well as Cellular RF & Microwave applications. In addition to our standard design service we offer routing services, accepting input from most CAD packages. Most routes can be turned around in 24 hours! Files can easily be exchanged over the internet. We can send PDF files for viewing and printing. Applied CAD Knowledge, Inc. makes next-generation technology available to our high-tech customers with state-of-the-art printed circuit board electronic engineering, designs, fabrication and assembly. Our experience includes SMT, Analog, Digital, and RF designs. Established in 1983, the company has been servicing companies who are pacesetters in the world of computers, communications, networking and aerospace. Applied CAD is a leader in addressing the needs of the electronic design engineering disciplines in developing high performance product at competitive prices in a rapid time-to-market environment. Since its inception, Applied CAD has merged several leading design service bureaus into a leading resource for electronic packaging needs. Input to the design process can be hand drawn schematics, netlist on floppy or CAE output such as Futurenet, Case, Orcad, Schema, Valid, PADS etc. Data can be accepted on 1/4 inch cartridge tape, 3.5 inch disks, modem or FTP. Output is 100% machine & human checked for correctness to original netlist, for spacing violations, line lengths, signal noise analysis, parallelism, controlled impedance and ECL rules. Final output plots are scanned by a qualified designer for completeness and correct detail. Output Formats are performed on one of our 12 Sun Workstations or 8 X86 PCs. Outputs can be generated for Cadence Allegro, PADS. or Zuken Racal CadStar and plotted on our Raster Graphics Color Electrostatic Plotter. Multiples of each system/periphery ensures full availability. Communication is with our designers. Dialog between engineers and CAD designers is encouraged to facilitate accuracy and expediency of concept. Communication can be via phone, Email, modem, FTP or sitting with the designer.
