CG PROGRAMMING Embedded Controllers


What We Provide
Our services are to get your product to market faster, better, and cheaper than your competition.  Many companies are highly knowledgeable in their equipment, but do not have the in house experience with other systems.  The end user is needs to have their entire system maintained and operating, not just one piece of equipment.  Systems now need to communicate with computers and other equipment to provide diagnostic and configuration tools.  Advanced embedded controller software adds the capability while reducing chip counts and per unit costs.  Software needs to be user friendly and have the user's nomenclature included.

Accelerated Assist
Don't just outsource your programming!  Our Accelerated Assist development program brings our companies closer together for strategic advantages. Reduce your engineering costs and shorten your development cycle.  We will work closely with you from start to finish so we will ensure your needs are met.  We handle the software development management, debugging, and optimization for you.  You stay focused on your product development.  Together we will deliver a better solution to market faster than your competitors.  Clear advantages include:
-Faster time to market
-Clearly defined costs
-Lower internal costs
-Your in house specialists are free for more projects
-Better success ratios
-Innovative designs
-Longer life cycles
-Lower life cycle costs

Using Embedded Controllers
All products must be commercially viable and successful in today's markets.  Many existing products have worked well in the past, but today's users demand more reliability, troubleshooting, ease of use, and communications.  Some products add embedded controllers just to reduce the component count and the associated per unit cost.  Other products are updated to add functionality without having to create a new product.  Sometimes, new products are created with embedded controllers with features that were previously too expensive or not possible at all.
 



STEPS TO YOUR SOLUTION

Definition
Before any development can start, the actual needs are identified.  A detailed outline of what the software is expected to provide is created.  This ensures all aspects of what will be required in the final product are included.

Design
The outline must be analyzed to determine of all the functions are needed, useful, and not conflicting.  Resolution of these issues early will save on post development work.  The design includes analysis of the program as part of entire system, internal and external specifications

Plan of Attack
The software layout is planned.  You, our client, are consulted design flow at a level of detail that you desire.  The plan for the software development is made and any possible problems are identified.

Code Generation
The software is written according to the timeline.  Corrective measures are made before the project is due if the timeline will not be made.

Quality Assurance
Many options are available for ensuring the highest quality software.  Compatibility testing, standard validation, system testing, automated testing, and usability testing.  Diagnostics are always included in our software.

Client Review
With embedded controllers that have security features for the program code, the client is given the chip with the program on it.  You evaluate the chip with your people to determine what needs to be improved.  There is not charge for the initial program chip.  Changes are planned and the steps start again at the design stage.

Acceptance
A revolutionary idea!  Only after you are completely satisfied with the software is payment made!  The software code and documentation is then released to you with your acceptance.  This method provides you with the software you need, on budget, with low risk, and to market before your competitors.
