Device Engineering uses several design resources depending upon the type of design and expertise of designer.  Device Engineering's design staff are skilled in Arinc 429 and similar products which comprise DEI's Standard Product Line which includes Drivers, Receivers and Transceivers for Arinc 429; but are not limited to those product types.  Designs have been completed in CMOS, Bipolar, BiCMOS, SiGe, HVMOS, and SiC technologies for customers in Military, Avionics, Commercial, and Industrial markets.

Design capabilities include:

• ECL Logic

• High Capacitance Drive ICs

• High Voltages (>40 to 1650V)

• Thermal Control 

• Pierce Oscillator

• Imaging

• Very Low Phase Noise Frequency Synthesizer (-160dBc/Hz > 5 kHz)

• On Chip Lightning Protected Inputs (Transients up to 600v) DO160 Level 3

• Backplane Transceiver Logic (6 ns delay)

• Transient Voltage Protection (100V/ 100μs Transient Suppression)
