Custom electronic design and manufacture: for applications where standard products don't exist

Bespoke high-voltage pulse generators, nuclear instrumentation, multi-channel analyzers, and complete electronic assemblies, designed, built, and firmware-integrated to specification.

When the instrument you need isn't in any catalog

In most engineering projects, the path to a working product runs through a supplier catalog. But in some industries (nuclear measurement, high-voltage research, specialized medical instrumentation), the instrument you need has never been mass-produced, because the market is too small and the specifications too specific for any standard product to satisfy.

3 Core Use Cases

Nuclear measurement and radiation detection

Detecting, counting, and analyzing radiation requires instrumentation precisely matched to the detector type, energy range, and count rate of the specific application. Multi-channel analyzers for this work are not mass-market products. Every system is specified for the measurement it needs to make.

High-voltage pulse applications

Whether for materials research, particle accelerators, plasma physics, or industrial process control, HV pulse generators must meet precise rise time, pulse amplitude, and repetition rate requirements that no catalog product satisfies.

Scientific and medical instrumentation

In research and medical contexts, the measurement is the result. Where the precision of the instrument determines the validity of the data, every part of the electronic architecture must be engineered to the application.

Custom Electronics Workflow

How a custom project works

Requirements are defined and validated

Functional requirements, environmental conditions, interfaces, and system constraints are analyzed. Feasibility and technical approach are aligned before development begins.

Mechatronic system is designed

Mechanical design, electronics (schematic & PCB), and software architecture are developed in parallel. A design review ensures alignment with the specification before prototyping.

Prototype is built, assembled, and tested

PCBs are assembled, the device is built, and software is integrated. The prototype is tested against requirements and iterated as needed. Customer validation follows.

Series device is built, delivered, and supported

From component sourcing and assembly to full device build, integration, testing, and documentation. Ready-to-use systems are delivered with ongoing support for production and revisions.

Frequently asked questions

A multi-channel analyzer (MCA) is an electronic instrument used in nuclear spectroscopy to sort and count incoming pulses by amplitude, creating an energy spectrum of detected radiation or particles. MCAs are used in nuclear physics research, radiation protection, environmental measurement, and medical imaging. Because performance requirements vary significantly between applications, MCAs are typically designed to specific measurement requirements rather than selected from a standard catalog.

High-voltage pulse generators produce precisely controlled electrical pulses with defined amplitude, duration, rise time, and repetition rate. In research, they drive particle detectors, stimulate plasma discharge, and test dielectric materials. In industrial applications, they are used in electrostatic processes and high-voltage insulation testing. The specific requirements of each application almost always require a custom design.

Timeline depends on system complexity and specification completeness. Simple custom assemblies can move from specification to prototype in 4–8 weeks. Complex systems involving new HV circuit topologies or multi-channel firmware may take 3–6 months to reach a validated prototype. Assessimus confirms estimated timelines as part of the initial project review.

Custom electronics design sits within the network's Technical Systems pillar, alongside EMC test equipment and battery systems. Products developed through this service often go on to require compliance testing through other parts of the network, such as EMC equipment validation or material qualification. Because these are all available through Assessimus, the path from instrument design to compliant product is managed as a single coordinated engagement.
