About Us

We're open for business.

At mv|designlabs, we love prototyping, designing, and building complex products. Our team has worked on a wide variety of projects ranging from intricate, complex designs such as video streaming hardware for BoxCast to a prototype robot lawnmower for Case Western Reserve University.

Our engineers have cross-discipline expertise across mechanical engineering, industrial design, electrical engineering (analog / digital), and software engineering (firmware / application / cloud.)

In addition to client-centric consulting, we're working hard to release our own product portfolio - stay tuned for more information!

MV Designlabs is feeling proud.2017/08/31 at 2:13pm

Ever had a USB-to-serial adapter die during hardware bring-up and debugging? Yeah, so did we.

Check out the custom debugger solution we built! Dual isolated UART, dual isolated I2C, and Xilinx, Inc. tool compatible FPGA debugging!

Debugging Embedded Linux Hardware, Made Easy

We got tired of flaky debuggers and cheap USB-to-serial converters, so we decided to design a more elegant and rugged solution to make debugging easier. Featuring an on-board Xilinx FPGA programmer, isolated dual USB-to-serial adapters, and dual USB-to-I2C adapters, you can bring-up and debug cus

#TearDownTuesday of a USB C Cable

We routinely use off-the-shelf USB cables for debugging and testing of our designs. Whether we’re qualifying an off-the-shelf USB charger for a customer application or testing a custom design’s USB port, it’s convenient to have bare leads attached to a USB connector. With USB C,...
