Smart, Connected, and Built for the Real World
At Oxta Design Australia, we provide full-spectrum electronics design services that take your ideas from initial concept to production-ready hardware. Whether you’re developing a consumer gadget in Sydney, an IoT device in Melbourne, or an industrial sensor system in Brisbane, our experienced electronics engineers can help you bring intelligent, reliable, and scalable electronic solutions to life.
From embedded systems and PCB design to firmware development and prototyping, we deliver smart designs tailored for the Australian market — compliant, manufacturable, and built to last.
What Is Electronics Design?
Electronics design is the process of creating the hardware and firmware that power modern digital devices. It encompasses the selection of components, circuit design, PCB layout, embedded software development, signal integrity, and functional testing. Whether it’s a simple battery-powered board or a complex IoT-connected system, electronics design is at the core of smart product innovation.
At Oxta Design, we blend innovation with engineering rigour to develop electronic systems that are compact, power-efficient, user-friendly, and production-ready — designed to work reliably in Australia’s diverse environments.
Why Electronics Design Matters for Australian Companies
As Australian industries embrace smarter, data-driven technologies, the demand for custom electronics is rapidly growing. Whether you’re in consumer tech, agriculture, mining, medical, or automation — embedded electronics are critical for differentiation and performance.
When designed correctly, electronics can:
Enhance product functionality
Enable wireless connectivity, sensors, and control
Improve energy efficiency
Unlock data tracking and smart automation
Reduce production and maintenance costs
Meet Australian compliance standards (RCM, EMC, etc.)
Our End-to-End Electronics Design Services
Our Sydney-based team works with startups, manufacturers, and research groups across Australia to deliver electronics that perform under real-world conditions. We work from early-stage scoping right through to production handover.
1. Requirements Gathering & Feasibility Study
We begin with a technical discovery process, understanding what your product needs to do, where it will operate, and how users will interact with it. We assess feasibility, recommend architectures, and align the design with power, cost, and certification constraints.
2. Schematic Design & Component Selection
Using Altium Designer and other industry tools, we develop robust circuit schematics and select reliable components based on local availability and long-term sourcing. We consider power budgets, signal paths, and thermal profiles early in the process.
3. PCB Layout & Design for Manufacture
We design multi-layer PCBs with layout strategies optimised for manufacturability, EMI/EMC performance, and mechanical integration. Our designs are ready for fabrication at Australian PCB houses or offshore facilities — complete with gerbers, pick-and-place files, and test points.
4. Embedded Firmware Development
We develop low-level firmware for microcontrollers (ARM, AVR, ESP, STM32, etc.) and interface protocols like I2C, SPI, UART, BLE, Wi-Fi, and LoRa. Our firmware is lightweight, efficient, and tailored to your application — from sensor readings to power management and wireless updates.
5. Prototyping & Validation
We assemble and test fully functional electronic prototypes in collaboration with local partners. We run stress tests, power monitoring, signal analysis, and validation cycles to ensure real-world reliability.
6. Design for Certification
Electronics in Australia must meet EMC and radio compliance requirements. We design and test your product to prepare for RCM certification, AS/NZS standards, and other relevant compliance benchmarks. We also support pre-compliance testing and liaise with local test labs.
7. Production Handover
We provide full manufacturing files — including BOMs, gerber files, assembly drawings, test procedures, and firmware — for seamless transition to production. We assist with sourcing, cost reduction, and version control as your product scales.
Local Knowledge, Real-World Experience
Designing electronics for the Australian environment requires more than good schematics. Our team understands the practical challenges: dust in rural installations, heat stress in industrial zones, wireless interference in urban hubs, and power constraints in off-grid setups.
