Good to Know

Hardware R&D Services FAQ

Dive into our design philosophy, process, and collaboration details.

What is the main process of hardware R&D?

The main process of hardware R&D includes requirement analysis, prototype design, circuit design, structural design, product testing & validation (including EVT, DVT, and PVT), and production optimization. Each phase is designed to ensure the product’s functionality, performance, and quality meet the expected standards.

What are the differences between EVT, DVT, and PVT?

EVT (Engineering Validation Test) primarily validates the product’s basic functions and performance. DVT (Design Validation Test) ensures stability under various conditions, covering the complete design of hardware, firmware, and software. PVT (Production Validation Test) is conducted before production to ensure product quality and consistency in mass production.

How do you ensure the quality and reliability of hardware products?

We adopt a stringent quality control process, from material selection to production techniques, everything undergoes meticulous inspection and validation. Additionally, we conduct multiple rounds of product testing, including EVT, DVT, and PVT, to ensure product stability and reliability under various environments and use cases.

How long is the typical cycle for hardware R&D?

The cycle for hardware R&D varies depending on the complexity and requirements of the project. Generally, it can take anywhere from a few months to a year or more from concept to production. Key stages like prototype design, testing, and production validation can influence the overall R&D timeline.

How does your team select the appropriate electronic components and materials?

Our team conducts thorough market research and evaluations based on project requirements, performance standards, and budget to select the most suitable electronic components and materials. We have established long-term relationships with multiple suppliers to ensure the quality and reliability of the chosen components.

How is iteration conducted in hardware R&D?

In hardware R&D, we first create prototypes and conduct preliminary tests. Based on the test results, we optimize and adjust the design, then test again. This process is repeated multiple times until the product meets the expected performance and quality standards.

How do you ensure the production cost of hardware products stays within budget?

We conduct detailed cost estimations at the beginning of the project and negotiate with suppliers to get the best prices. Throughout the R&D process, we continuously monitor costs to ensure they don’t exceed the budget. If necessary, we make design adjustments to meet cost objectives.

What are the common challenges in hardware R&D, and how do you overcome them?

Common challenges in hardware R&D include technological constraints, cost control, and time pressures. We overcome these challenges through continuous training, close collaboration with suppliers, and adopting agile development methodologies.
