Electrical Engineering
SDI designs robust electrical architectures for connected products — power delivery, signal integrity, motor control, and compliance paths engineered for real-world manufacturing.
Our Silicon Valley team synchronizes schematic design, PCB layout, firmware interfaces, and factory test with mechanical and software disciplines so your product ships without late-stage electrical rework.
System Integration Philosophy
Electrical engineering is not an isolated schematic exercise — every rail, connector, and protection circuit must align with mechanical envelope, thermal budget, firmware boot sequence, and factory test fixtures.
SDI coordinates electrical design with cross-functional gates: architecture reviews with firmware, stack-up checks with mechanical, and DFM sessions with manufacturing before tooling is committed.

Common questions about electrical engineering scope, compliance, timelines, and manufacturing handoff.
What electrical engineering services does SDI provide?
Architecture, schematic capture, power design, motor control, EMC planning, compliance support, and factory-ready documentation.
Do you handle PCB layout as well as schematics?
Yes. Electrical programs include schematic and layout coordination, or we integrate with your existing layout team.
Can you support UL, FCC, and CE certification?
We prepare documentation, pre-test designs, and coordinate with certified labs for emissions and safety testing.
How do you approach power management design?
We define power trees, efficiency targets, thermal limits, and battery/charging architectures before detailed schematic work.
Do you work with firmware teams?
Yes. Pin mux, boot sequence, and driver requirements are defined jointly with embedded engineering.
What industries do you support?
IoT, robotics, industrial, medical, consumer, and mobility platforms among others.
How long does an electrical design program take?
Architecture through first-spin layout typically runs 6–12 weeks depending on complexity and compliance scope.
Do you optimize BOM cost?
Yes. Component selection includes lifecycle analysis, second sources, and cost tracking against target unit economics.
Can you improve an existing electrical design?
We audit schematics and layouts for reliability, EMC, cost, and manufacturability then re-engineer as needed.
