WavePond® designs electronic test equipment with the goals of making them high performance and user friendly at a low cost. These products contain modules that are easily upgraded, replaced, or repaired by the factory (or user) making them less likely to become obsolete.
Products include
Medium/High Speed Instrumentation
(Digitizers, AWGs, Clock Generators, DWGs),
Personal Electronics
(Security System Modules/Sensors, General Purpose Controllers, Power Supplies, etc.),
New Hardware / Software Controller Stacks
(Embedded electronics similar to PC/104), and
User Programmable Electronics
(UPE = Software + HDL in same code, real-time).
