Freedom CAD Services, Inc. is a specialized printed circuit board engineering and design service bureau founded by industry veterans with roots dating back to the early 1990s. Operating out of Bedford, New Hampshire, the company provides turnkey hardware engineering, high-speed PCB layout, and schematic design support to electronics manufacturers nationwide.
With a full-time staff of over 30 PCB designers and electronics engineers completing more than 800 board designs each year, the firm delivers complex multi-layer designs ranging from high-speed digital and backplanes to high-density interconnect (HDI) and RF systems.
Freedom CAD Services operates under stringent quality and compliance frameworks, maintaining ISO 9001:2015 certification and ITAR registration with the U.S. Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC).
Freedom CAD Services provides comprehensive electronic hardware engineering and PCB design services:
- Schematic Capture & Architecture: Complex system architecture development, schematic capture, component research, critical component selection, and symbol library creation.
- PCB Layout & Design: Multi-layer rigid, flex, and rigid-flex designs; High-Density Interconnect (HDI), microvia, blind and buried via layouts; fine-pitch BGA and micro-BGA routing; controlled impedance, length-matched differential pairs, and high-speed backplane/midplane design.
- EDA Tool Capabilities: Deep expertise across industry-standard EDA platforms including Cadence Allegro, OrCAD, Siemens Xpedition, Siemens PADS, and Altium Designer.
- Signal & Power Integrity: Pre- and post-layout signal integrity (SI) simulation, power integrity (PI) analysis, and PDN evaluation.
- Design for Manufacturability (DFM): In-house Valor NPI rule checks, fabrication and assembly design rule checks (DRC), panelization, and creation of comprehensive manufacturing packages (ODB++, Gerber RS-274X, IPC-2581).
- Hardware & Embedded Systems: Embedded firmware and RTOS integration, power supply and battery management design, thermal and structural simulation, and EMI/EMC susceptibility mitigation.
