The two founders of PDS started in the printed circuit board industry back in the early 1980’s working in different positions at various companies. In 2003, the founders with their experienced background decided to open Power Design Services. Knowing it would be a challenge in an over saturated industry, they knew that PDS can offer services and quality that have not been seen before. The company started in a 500sq ft office and grew into 20 plus employees. Today fortune 500 companies such as Toshiba, PALM, Broadcom relies on PDS for their prototype and small production requirements.
