NeuralBoard Systems | AI-Native Hardware Engineering Platform

THE PROBLEM

Hardware teams are drowning in repetitive engineering tasks

Defense and aerospace engineering groups waste up to 40% of senior engineer time on manual BOM management, datasheet scraping, schematic reviews, and procurement follow-ups — tasks that AI can handle autonomously.

⏳

Weeks per BOM Cycle

A single BOM rationalization cycle — checking EOL status, finding alternatives, validating derating — takes 2–3 weeks manually. AI does it overnight.

🔍

Hidden Obsolescence Risk

PDN/PCN notices are buried in distributor emails. By the time procurement notices, production lines are already at risk of a critical shortage.

💸

Procurement Overspend

Single-source dependencies and reactive purchasing consistently inflate TCO by 15–30% compared to proactive AI-managed sourcing strategies.

⚡

FPGA Development Bottlenecks

Writing RTL architecture, testbenches, and simulation setups for complex state machines consumes weeks of senior FPGA engineer time per iteration cycle.

🖥️

Late-Stage PCBA Errors

DRC violations and thermal design mistakes found during first prototypes cost 10× more to fix than if caught at layout stage. Manual review misses subtle issues.

🔧

Field Failures & Manufacturing Defects

Reliability issues discovered in the field — wrong derating, impedance mismatches, MTBF miscalculations — cost millions in recalls, rework, and program delays.

Case Study: BOM Rationalization for a 12-Layer Defense Board

How NeuralBoard's Component Engineer agent eliminated hidden supply chain risk and reduced total procurement cost on a mission-critical embedded system.

The Challenge

A defense electronics program faced a quarterly BOM review of 847 components across a 12-layer embedded compute board. The manual process took 3 weeks per cycle, required 2 senior engineers, and still missed a critical PDN notice that nearly halted production.

3 weeks per BOM review cycle

23 undetected EOL risks

847 unique component lines

After NeuralBoard

The BOM Agent processed the full 847-line BOM overnight, identified 23 EOL risks, proposed validated pin-compatible alternatives for all of them, and consolidated the BOM to 612 unique parts — saving ₪280K in procurement costs over the following 6 months.

14 hrs full review cycle ↓ 93%

0 EOL risks missed

₪280K procurement savings

"The system found a PDN notice our manual process would have missed entirely. That alone justified the engagement cost three times over."

FPGA RTL Generation

A 16-channel high-speed data acquisition controller required a complex state machine with CDC (Clock Domain Crossing) logic. Manual VHDL authoring estimated at 3 weeks. The FPGA Agent produced a verified, GHDL-simulated RTL core with full testbench in 11 hours — including 4 synthesis iterations.

PCBA Layout & DRC — Zero Spins

An 8-layer ruggedized compute board (industrial temperature range) was routed by the Layout Agent with impedance-controlled differential pairs and full thermal relief on power planes. The board passed DRC on the first Gerber submission — eliminating a typical 2–3 layout revision cycle that delays tape-out by weeks.

Field Failure Root-Cause — Vision AI

A deployed power supply board exhibited intermittent brownout failures in the field at high ambient temperatures. Engineers sent oscilloscope screenshots and board photos. The Hardware Vision AI identified a capacitor derating violation on the input filter stage within 8 minutes, a diagnosis that had stumped the team for 2 weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions defense and enterprise teams ask before every engagement.

Yes. NeuralBoard can be deployed entirely on-premise inside your air-gapped network — no data leaves your infrastructure. The full stack runs on Docker and Kubernetes, deployable to any internal server or private cloud. LLM models can be swapped for locally-hosted alternatives (e.g., Ollama-based) where ITAR restrictions apply.

In cloud deployments, only component part numbers and public distributor queries are sent externally. No schematic files, netlist data, or design IP leaves your network unless you explicitly enable cloud ECAD analysis. For sensitive programs, on-premise deployment is the recommended default.

Currently: KiCad (full Python API), Altium Designer (via Synthelyzer® plugin), OrCAD, and Siemens Xpedition. GHDL is used for FPGA simulation. Integrations with Cadence Virtuoso and Zuken CR-8000 are on the roadmap. Custom EDA integrations are available under the Enterprise tier.

Yes. The n8n automation layer provides webhook-based integration with common PLM platforms (Windchill, Teamcenter) and ERP systems (SAP, Priority). REST API connectors can be built for custom internal tools. This is included in the Professional and Enterprise tiers.

Pilot engagements are structured to deliver a measurable output within 4 weeks. Typical timeline: Week 1 — environment setup and data ingestion; Week 2-3 — agent execution and iteration; Week 4 — deliverable report with quantified results. Most clients see positive ROI within the pilot period itself.

Yes. NeuralBoard has been designed from the ground up for defense electronics workflows — including SMC-S-010 derating standards, BQR reliability integration, and air-gapped deployment options. We work with prime contractors and Tier 1 suppliers across defense, aerospace, and intelligence systems.
