Power Supply Development for the Austrian Electronic Manufacturing Company

Egston is an international electronic manufacturing company with over 1,000 employees developing inductive components and electronics for the automotive and other industries.

Egston is an electronic manufacturing company based in Austria that produces inductive components such as transformers and inductor coils, antennas, sensor coils and cable systems for the automotive industry as well as various types of power supplies.

Partnership overview

The cooperation between Egston and N-iX encompassed the development of a set of power supplies covering a wide range of voltages (from 5V to 24V). Since the client dedicates special attention to the quality of the products and their compliance with international standards, our engineers’ main task was to study and follow the specifications while developing the solution. The team worked fully on site testing the PSUs against various parameters and improving the efficiency of the units. They designed the products for worldwide use with input voltage from 90V to 264V, from 47Hz to 63Hz.

The team also developed the board, the scheme and the construction of the transformer. Therefore, the programmers maintained the highest quality of embedded software and hardware development and delivered the product within a short timeframe. The PSUs developed by N-iX engineers was certified by the strictest international standards for high efficiency, electromagnetic conducted and radiated emission etc.
