Research & development center is the decisive advantage against competitors, with history as long as GVS itself. Once a small R&D department, today it is efficient and modern R&D institute capable to successfully complete any R&D task.

Electronic design

Since 1988, GVS is the source of state-of-the-art R&D achievements in electronic design: switchmode power converters design, single and multilayer PCB design, programmable logic design FPGA, VHDL design and verification, magnetic-wounded components design, mechanical parts design, electronic systems high level design.

Software & programming

In the area of software and programming we emphasize specific fields of real time and large-scale software, over a million lines of code. GVS experts have long-term experience in: high-level software design, high level programming languages C, C++ and Ruby, assembler programming for microprocessors, microcontrollers, and digital signal processors. GVS bases its software development projects on proprietary program components, the most important: real time operating system GVSOS, real time database management system SUB, TCP/iP protocol stack, digital signal processing algorithm libraries.

Test & measurement equipment & tools

GVS is equipped with top-of-the-line test & measurement equipment:

• telecom test & measurement equipment : error sources, meters and counters, jitter and wander sources and meters
• verification equipment for dielectric strength, earthing, insulation resistance, EMI immunity, overvoltages & spikes, EMI emission
• climatic & mechanical test equipment: temperature chambers, vibration & shock platforms
• RF equipment: RF senders & meters, spectrum analyzers

Development equipment & tools

GVS bases development process on proprietary development equipment & tools, and also uses commercial and “open source” tools:

• rapid application development (RAD) tools - code generators DDLC, MACRO
• automated testing tools - Testera
• special purpose continuous integration and delivery tools for embedded systems
• formal verification tools - Why3/WhyML, CBMC, SPIN/Promela

Prototyping workshops

To cut development time & time-to-market to the minimum, GVS has in-house prototyping workshops, also capable to manufacture zero lots and small quantity lots.
