Penn Electronic Design Shop

About Us

Welcome to the Penn Electronic Design Shop at the University of Pennsylvania.  Penn EDS (Electronic Design Shop) is intended to be a resource for researchers with a need of electronic and embedded design services. The Penn EDS operates with the intention to serve as a resource, not only for the University of Pennsylvania but to the research community abroad.  Many labs over the years benefited from the electronic solutions from the Penn EDS.

At the Penn EDS we sustain the projects that were delivered over the years and we are ready to help with any future electronic/hardware-Firmware-software projects that can help researchers in the area of Electronic design, embedded systems and even product engineering management.
