Create complex electronics that use MCUs, FPGAs, high-speed serial, high-speed ADCs, low-noise analog circuits, ultra low-power, batteries, switching supplies, and RF/antennas.

Simulate, build, and test antennas, frequency selective surfaces (FSS),  HPM/EMP protection, RFID/NFC, wireless power transfer, and EMC solutions.

Get your prototype faster using our in-house capabilities: pick and place, reflow, hand assembly, 3D printing, final assembly, wire harness assembly, testing, and engineering characterization.

Rigorous electronic design for mission-critical applications in medical devices, avionics, and weapons sys​tems.

We create custom hardware and video processing IP solutions for proprietary analog and digital video systems used in radars, avionics, and scientific instruments. We are world experts in stroke video format conversion for HUD, electronic warfare, radar and sonar displays, electronic flight display (EFD), and scientific instruments.

Battery-powered electronic design addresses a wide range of challenging demands: battery chemistries, operating voltage range, single cell and multi-cell, ultra-low power operation, long life, extreme temperature, extended shelf life, high-rate charge and discharge, supply chain, regulatory requirements, and of course safety. We provide support from concept through production for new battery-powered electronic designs.

The Video Attenuator is an operator control for the OJ-451 radar display and OJ-452 sonar display in the Aegis Combat System. It is form-fit-function compatible with the obsolete and unserviceable part NSN 5985-01-111-8316, providing a new source for this critical wear item. From design to production, Pathfinder Electronics delivered units in 3 months.

The PE-451 Tester is the manufacturing test set for the PE-451 Display. It provides a built-in multi-channel stroke video test pattern generator for stand-alone radar display testing, a test point and switch matrix, and can be inserted between the AN/UYQ-21 console and PE-451 Display for console/display troubleshooting. The compact Tester fits inside airline carry-on luggage.

Let’s discuss how we can support your product testing needs.

As a 6-month SBIR Phase I feasibility contract for Navy NAVAIR PMA-242, Pathfinder Electronics designed and built a fully functional intervalometer prototype designed to meet aircraft military standards for shock and vibration, temperature, aircraft power, temperature range, and EMC. The module is fail-safe to single-point failures. The design solution overcame a challenging and unusual combination of constraints for small volume, operation within milliseconds of power-on, and safety functions when powered off. The form-fit-function compatible prototype was functionally demonstrated over the full temperature range.
