ByteSnap expand its electronics design capabilities

ByteSnap Design’s EMC testing enables it to identify and fix any issues prior to external testing – so de-risking a project and resulting in cost and time savings over a project lifetime. EMC testing services are used as part of the CE marking process for electronic products sold within the EU, whilst other territories have their own strict protocols, such as FCC for the USA. Early testing minimises the risks of failing a formal EMC test. Failure rates can be high, especially in complex projects using current high frequency and high-speed components. ByteSnap Design’s new EMC chamber will be also used to make comparative signal strength measurements for low power radios to check performance over time, or the effect of modifications. While this service is not a replacement for R&TTE testing, it will reduce project timescales and increase efficiency. Dunstan Power, Director of ByteSnap Design commented on the company’s new offer: “The chamber is great news for clients, as through our EMC testing services, they’ll get an even more cost effective production service. Our clients will gain a clearer picture of how well the product is working, prior to going through the formal approval process. Our new chamber will identify any issues early and contribute to minimising the cost of fixes and avoiding repeat testing.”
