Demcon electronics
About us
Do you develop electronics for demanding or safety-critical applications and are you looking for a reliable partner for RF performance, EMC, certification, or scaling up to production? Demcon Electronics helps organizations bring robust electronic systems to market faster and with less risk.
Demcon Electronics is the specialized electronics and RF competence center within the Demcon Group. We offer end-to-end development of electronic systems: from analog and digital electronics, FPGA development, and embedded firmware to fully integrated hardware and software solutions. We guide the entire process from concept and prototyping to certified, production-ready products.
Our expertise includes RF and wireless communication (such as GSM, GPS, satellite, and IoT), high-frequency design, power electronics, embedded computing, and FPGA-based signal processing and control. With our own professional anechoic chamber, we integrate RF and EMC pre-compliance testing directly into the development process, thereby mitigating risks early and shortening lead times.
As part of a multidisciplinary engineering group, we combine in-depth electronics expertise with knowledge of mechatronics, software, and manufacturing. In this way, we realize reliable solutions for industrial automation, defense, medical technology, and high-tech systems, among others.

needle placement system.
Liver cancer is one of the most common and lethal cancers in the world. To diagnose this form of cancer, a physician takes a biopsy by accurately inserting a needle in the tumor. To destroy the tumor, the physician inserts one or more ablation needles. For deep and difficult to reach tumor lesions, this procedure is performed under CT guidance. Even for skilled specialists, it is hard to reach the right spot manually based on the CT image. Sometimes several attempts are necessary to place the needle successfully. To overcome this, a needle placement robot helps the medical specialist find exactly the right angle to place the needle the first time right – to the relief of both patient and specialist.
ultra-fast PCR Covid-19 test system.
During the pandemic, there was an urgent need for large-scale reliable Covid-19 testing on the spot, for example, at airports or entrance gates to crowded events. Our customer, miDiagnostics, immediately decided to create a portable, ultra-fast PCR Covid-19 test system. In less than a year, we developed the associated ‘reader’, a device for thermocycling and reading out disposable assay test cards. We also supported the development of these test cards.
Customized FPGA solutions for complex technical challenges
In this white paper, we aim to elaborate on the strengths of FPGAs and on possible applications and usages in products with which Demcon life sciences & health has experience. Over five chapters, we discuss a handful of considerations to showcase some of our in-house competencies with which we can support your FPGA needs in your next consumer design.
