System

From developing prototypes to series production, our customers and partners benefit from our many years of systems experience. Our systems engineering expertise ensures maximum safety, highest performance and an optimal cost/benefit ratio in electronic applications. 

Silver Atena develops concepts and architectures for complex interactive systems, establishes requirements for hardware and software applications and defines interfaces to integrate and validate of the system. 

We develop, deploy and validate control concepts and algorithms for highly dynamic electric drives and optimise thermal management. 

Silver Atena is equipped to utilize both classic and model-based development methods, is a master of the major industry standards and can take on or support qualification, certification or verification.

Safety/Security

Developing customised electronic systems with safety-relevant functionality is one of our core competencies. 

For us, management and engineering in safety-relevant projects and the performance of safety analyses from the perspective of functional safety and cyber security are integral components of a comprehensive development process.

Through audits and assessments during the development process, we give you the certainty that, in compliance with the industry-specific requirements (e.g. ISO 26262, DO-178C, ISO 21434) all products created meet their specific safety targets and approval criteria. 

Hardware

As an expert in power electronics and control unit development, we have proven our strength many times over in hardware development for automotive, aviation and renewable energy. We can meet the most demanding requirements in terms of space required, power density, efficiency or noise thanks to our many years of development experience.

From the very beginning, we take safety, reliability, design-to-cost and design-to-manufacture into account for an optimal series design, which is proven in the approval phase.  

By using our validated hardware construction kit, customer-specific requirements can be implemented in very short time frames. Our established development process ensures that all safety objectives and applicable standards are met.

Software

Silver Atena is your expert partner for the development of embedded software, from entire software projects to individual development steps.

We apply conventional and agile development methods, depending on the project. All projects are managed transparently and effectively by utilising metrics. A model-based software development process including a tool chain is available for this purpose, which enables efficient and quality-oriented software development and meets industry-specific requirements (e.g. ISO26262, ASPICE, DO-178C).

Test

Whether for standardised test solutions or individual components developed and tested in-house – when it comes to testing, Silver Atena is your top system partner. 

From test solutions design and analysis for requirements-based testing to specification and build to commission, execution and maintenance. 

Based on a wide-ranging and modular test portfolio, we develop customised test solutions such as Iron Bird, hardware-in-the-loop, end-of-line or even steering system test benches. 

Qualification

Silver Atena is your expert partner for comprehensive environmental tests and qualification of electronic control units – from individual tests to complete product qualification including EMC tests and measures.

We organise the entire qualification process for our customers – from test planning, test execution and troubleshooting to certification. 

We test according to all common standards from the automotive or aerospace industry and can also carry out qualification according to customer-specific standards.

Having our own infrastructure allows for short turnaround times and flexible planning.
