Success Stories

API used electromagnetic FEA software to help an automotive supplier to successfully design an electronic control module to meet SAE and OEM EMC/EMI specification without conducting any EMC/EMI test. Prototyping and testing cost savings were in the millions, let alone the time savings.

API used electromagnetic FEA software to help a medical device manufacturer to design an electric motor too small to prototype. The design parameters were completely determined by analysis results. First prototype passed all the specification. Cost savings were in the millions.

API used electromagnetic FEA and mixed signal system simulation software to help an automotive supplier to analyze an ABS wheel speed sensor assembly failure modes and conditions, and recommended effective circuit and packaging design changes. The re-designed assembly has not experienced any failure yet. The potential part recall cost savings were in the ten million range.

API used electromagnetic FEA software to help an automotive supplier to design a slip electric motor. API also designed and prototyped the electronic slip ratio control unit for the motor. The supplier has obtained several patents for the system and it is in production.

API used mixed signal system simulation software to help an automotive supplier to determine a door lock mechanism failure cause. The consequential fatigue test confirmed the analysis results. The supplier was able to produce the mechanism successfully without any future failure.

API designed a data acquisition system to measure a MRI machine room electromagnetic fields. API then used electromagnetic FEA software to design magnetic shielding for the room. The company responsible for the room construction was able to save tens of thousands dollars in construction material cost alone.

API developed Saber models of a turbo charged diesel engine control mechanism for an automotive supplier. The models are used for OEM DFSS effort. The mechanism has hydraulic, electromagnetic, and electronic components. The models can comprehend thermal environmental, manufacturing part tolerance, and aging effects.

API designed, developed and prototyped an assembly line tester for an automotive electronics supplier to test its in-vehicle entertainment devices. API designed the control and test logic in MATLAB/Simulink and auto-coded. Along with RTOS and device drivers, the code was compiled and flashed into the tester. API also developed PC HMI for the tester. The tester has been used on assembly line ever since.

API produced different level fidelity Saber models of a PFC-capable AC-DC power supply device for an aerospace supplier. The models are used for system simulation to verify  power system control stability, EMC/EMI performance, and power system sizing.

API developed an HIL simulation system for an automotive supplier to test heavy-duty truck brake system control module. A typical such system would costs close to a million dollars. This system only costs $65K, besides consulting fees.
