​ 
​From Thought to Tech

​
Engineering resources and support for New Product Introduction (NPI), Research and Development (R&D), and Innovation/Intellectual Property (IP) development

​We take a first principles approach to help you find innovative solutions for your most pressing needs by:
  • Thinking across disciplines and questioning conventional approaches to create new ideas,
  • Using deep scientific knowledge and advanced techniques for verifying concepts, and
  • Applying the developed technologies to your challenges using sound engineering methods.
Picture
Any technology development or New Product Introduction (NPI) consists of three main activities: concept definition and value proposition, technology and business feasibility, and project planning and prototype engineering.

About Us

We have 20+ years of experience in front end engineering in microelectronics (chip-scale, wafer-level and 3D packaging and interconnect of memory, processor, MEMS and sensors) and consumer electronics (embedded sub-systems such as memory modules and System-in-Package (SiP), and full products such as wearable health trackers, headphones, etc.) We have helped file 100+ patents and develop 10+ technologies and products, carrying out all the tasks listed on this website. 

We are based in San Jose, CA.

 

    ​We would love to hear from you.
