We build the hardware stack. You build the product.
EtherCAT consulting and PCB design — 1–2 years compressed to weeks.
Software Consulting
EtherCAT architecture, integration, and system design
From network topology planning and ENI generation through real-time host commissioning and full software integration — we handle the entire EtherCAT stack so your team can focus on the application.
EtherCAT Network Architecture
Topology design, slave selection, cycle-time budgeting, and control stack planning for deterministic real-time systems.
ENI Generation & Validation
EtherCAT Network Information (ENI) file generation from live bus scans, ESI file integration, PDO mapping, and sync manager validation.
Real-time Host Setup
PREEMPT_RT kernel configuration, CPU isolation, IRQ affinity tuning, and DC-sync qualification on your Linux host machine.
System Integration with LXMASTER
Full working application code integrated with your hardware using LXMASTER — axes, I/O modules, encoders, and custom device profiles.
Commissioning & Performance Tuning
On-site or remote drive tuning, distributed clock alignment, jitter measurement, and validation against your real-time performance requirements.
PCB Design
EtherCAT-ready hardware — zero firmware required
Custom PCBs built on Lynx EtherCAT module IP are hard real-time from day one. No firmware stack to develop, certify, or maintain. We compress hardware programs from 1–2 years to just a few weeks.
Zero Firmware, Hard Real-time
PCBs built on Lynx EtherCAT modules require no firmware. The EtherCAT protocol is handled entirely in hardware — no stack to write, certify, or maintain.
Robotics-Focused Board Design
Compact form factors, high connector density, multi-rail power delivery, and EMI management designed around the mechanical realities of robotics hardware.
Full Schematic & Layout
End-to-end PCB design from schematic capture through layout, DRC, and Gerber delivery. Manufacture-ready and test-ready on the first spin.
Bring-up & Validation
Hardware bring-up including signal integrity review, power-on sequencing validation, and functional testing alongside LXMASTER and your application.
Accelerated Timelines
By combining our proven EtherCAT module IP with deep robotics PCB expertise, we consistently compress hardware programs from 1–2 years to just a few weeks.
