That is why we deliver the best innovations in PCB assembly for life science, offering fully traceable, quality-driven solutions that support every stage of your product's development. From prototypes to high-volume production runs, we help leading medical device companies, biotech startups, and research institutions bring life-saving technologies to market with confidence.

PCB Assemblies Designed for Performance. Built for Life.

The stakes are high when electronics are used in patient care or biomedical research. Odyssey Electronics delivers PCB for life science devices with the tight tolerances, contamination controls, and consistent signal integrity required by FDA-regulated and ISO-certified products.

Our expertise spans a wide range of applications, including:

Medical Imaging Systems -- including PCBs for MRI, CT, ultrasound, and portable X-ray
In-vitro Diagnostics (IVD) -- supporting devices for fluid handling, lab-on-chip systems, and point-of-care testing
Wearables & Biosensors -- compact, lightweight boards for real-time data collection and wireless communication
Therapeutic Devices -- supporting electrostimulation, drug delivery, and robotic surgical tools
Laboratory Equipment -- enabling automation, sensing, and analysis in research environments

With capabilities across SMT, thru-hole, and mixed technology assembly, we offer flexible support for both complex multilayer boards and compact high-density interconnects (HDI).

Frequently Asked Questions About PCB Assembly for Life Science

Choosing the right partner for PCB assembly for life science means understanding how your design translates to manufacturable, regulatory-compliant boards. If you do not see your question here, feel free to check out our full FAQ or contact us directly for more detailed answers.

What should I consider when designing a PCB for medical or biotech devices?

Designs for life science applications must account for strict regulatory requirements, miniaturization needs, and high-reliability components. Early collaboration with your PCB assembler can help you avoid layout pitfalls, improve testability, and help make sure that your product will meet the highest standards.

How does Odyssey handle contamination risks during assembly?

We operate clean, ESD-safe assembly areas and follow strict handling protocols for moisture-sensitive and bio-adjacent components. H3: Can you help with rapid prototyping for biotech startups?

Absolutely. We support startups and research teams with prototyping and small-batch production services, which can be great for early-stage testing, clinical trials, or grant-funded development cycles. Our engineers also provide DFM support to help streamline your path to scalable manufacturing.

What testing options do you offer for life science PCBs?

We offer in-circuit testing (ICT), functional testing, flying probe, and environmental stress screening (ESS), along with custom test fixture development. We also support documentation and validation processes to guarantee compliance with medical device standards.

What certifications or quality systems should I look for in a PCB assembly partner for life science applications?

When it comes to medical, diagnostic, or biotech devices, quality and traceability are everything. Look for partners who follow ISO 13485 or ISO 9001 standards and are familiar with FDA requirements. At Odyssey, our processes are built around rigorous quality management systems and traceability, from materials to final inspection. We also provide lot tracking, documentation packages, and audit support to align with your regulatory roadmap.
