EMC Consulting and Testing
We don’t perform final FCC certification; we pre-screen your product to FCC standards before testing, so problems can be found and mitigated in our lab early, which can save time and money by avoiding extra board spins and repeat test failures.If you’ve already failed FCC compliance testing, we help find the cause and prepare for your retest.
Outside of regulatory work, we offer EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) testing and troubleshooting for problems like self-interference, ESD failures, or susceptibility to nearby equipment that makes a device reset, pick up noise or lose range.
We’re an independent RF and EMC consulting firm with a screen room and an RF test lab. Our principal designer holds 10+ issued RF circuit and system design patents, and our team has more than 30 years of combined experience.
Our expertise spans medical devices, avionics systems, satellite communications, automotive, consumer, utility, and other compliance-critical platforms.

Failed compliance tests? Not sure if you will pass FCC certification?
FCC pre-compliance testing – before you book the test house
- Screen your device in our lab before committing to a test window
- Find and mitigate radiated and conducted emissions problems before FCC Part 15, CE/EN, MIL-STD-461, IEC 60601-1-2, DO-160, and other regulatory testing
- Address problems before formal testing – not after you’ve burned money on a test window
FCC test failure diagnosis and redesign
- Diagnose exactly why you failed
- RF circuit and PCB-level redesign, including schematic and layout reviews, to address the root cause
- Re-screen in our lab before you go back to the test house
White-glove test house support
- We attend FCC Part 15 and many other types of certification testing with you and manage the process on-site
- Catch bad test setups before they affect your results
- Stop the clock if your device is defective by pre-screening in our lab
- Feedback throughout your test window – no surprises at the end
- Regulatory and type-approval support – including FCC certification, CE/EN conformity, and testing at accredited partner labs – from pre-compliance through final certification
Does your device have an RFI, EMI, or EMC problem?
No certification deadline. No formal spec. Just something that doesn’t work right.
- Self-interference and RFI debugging – your electronics are interfering with each other and you need to find the source
- ESD testing and debugging – test, diagnose, mitigate, retest
- EMC and EMI testing to your customer’s internal or proprietary specifications
- “I don’t have a spec – my device just doesn’t work right” – a valid starting point we hear regularly
Do you need an independent lab to verify RF/EMC performance?
Your customer has their own specs. Your vendor built the hardware. You need someone independent to test how it performs.
- Third-party RF performance testing against customer-defined specifications
- FCC Part 15 and Part 25 pre-compliance screening for satellite and all types of communications equipment
- Device-level RF/EMC performance testing – independent of the design house that built it
- Our credentials – we serve as a trusted outside test lab for various aerospace and satellite clients verifying vendor hardware meets specifications.
