Low
power + Portable
For portable operation or remote data acquisition, battery power is almost essential.
Texcel Research has the skills to design low power devices capable of reliable
operation in the field. Battery sources range from lithium and alkaline cells
to rechargeable nickel-metal-hydride (NiMH) and lead acid batteries with integrated
charge management circuits. |

Electronic
Design
We can provide full electronic design services from specification through schematic
capture, to the PCB layout and manufacturing package. Miniature designs using
surface mount components is a speciality.

Communications
The ability to communicate with remote or portable equipment for control,
configuration or data retrieval is a powerful advantage. We have
experience in many communications protocols and standards:
- GSM
modems
- CDMA
modems
- PSTN
modems
- RS232
serial
- RS422/485
serial
- Infrared

Environmental
Protection
Equipment used in the field requires a standard of environmental protection
substantially higher than laboratory equipment. We can ensure our designs
are water-proof and dust-proof by the correct choice of:
- connectors
- cables
- housings
- enclosures

Sensors & Data
Acquisition
With our background in vibration and structural monitoring, we can
work with almost any type of active or passive sensor, to measure almost
any physical quantity, including:
- velocity
- acceleration
- temperature
- pressure – gas
and fluid
- strain
- displacement
- sound
pressure

Correct signal conditioning can enhance the
quality of signals from sensors, and reduce the
burden on post-acquisition processing or analysis.
Our data acquisition experience covers sampling
rates from seconds to microseconds, low noise,
and high resolution. |
