Electronics

The development of electronics and circuits for safety-critical optronic applications places high demands on precision, reliability, and compliance with standards. In optronic systems used in safety-critical areas such as aviation, medical technology, or defense, functionality and error-free operation are essential, as even the smallest deviations can have serious consequences.

Compliance with international standards such as IEC 61508 or DO-254 is central to the development of such systems. These standards require a systematic approach, from requirements analysis and hardware development to comprehensive verification and validation measures. Circuit development involves the precise selection of components, robust PCB layout design, and ensuring electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).

In addition, redundancy concepts, fault tolerance, and diagnostic systems are increasingly being used to increase reliability. Safety-critical optronic applications often integrate optical sensors and actuators that must operate reliably under extreme environmental conditions. This requires not only optimized thermal design but also the use of specialized materials.

The combination of technical precision and strict regulatory requirements makes circuit development in this area one of the most demanding disciplines in electronics. However, it makes a decisive contribution to ensuring safety and reliability in modern high-tech systems.
