CircuitWerkes Custom Projects & Products
We often receive requests for custom products
or modifications to existing products. When
possible, we are happy to provide such services,
time permitting. Modifications to existing
products can range from simple firmware changes
to complete hardware redesigns. We also design
complete custom products to our customers'
specifications. Some of these products are
available for sale but are not usually sold
through our dealer network. Pricing for custom
projects depends on the complexity of the
design and how many products will be supplied.
If you have a need for custom solutions,
please feel free to contact our sales engineers
for a quote at (352) 335-6555 or e-mail us at sales@circuitwerkes.com.
Some of our custom products have included:
- A beep tone generator with balanced audio
throughput. Interrupts normal audio and beeps
three times when it gets an external contact
closure (2,000 pieces were made for a major
TV network).
- A serial data to relay converter for generating
16 contact closures from the Starguide-II
receivers' data stream. Custom made for a
large radio network.
- A DTMF decoder with a large LED matrix readout
and serial data output. Custom made for a
radio network that uses DTMF for in-house
switching.
- An interface for connecting the I/O ports
of a specialized PC to the outside world,
including rf shielding, and FCC Part 15 certification
for the entire project. 4,000 pieces were
manufactured for a TV network.
- A DTMF decoder that latches a relay upon
receiving a user programmable
DTMF tone.
Another DTMF tone releases
the relay and
other DTMF tones momentarily
close relays.
One use for this product
was in teleconferencing.
- A telephone strobe that begins flashing when
a call is received and continues until a
reset button is pushed. Several hundred of
these were made for a buying co-op.
- The MPC-2 - A very inexpensive, FCC part
68 approved, telephone DAA module that can be incorporated into other designs.
The above products illustrate some of the
many custom projects we've made over the
years. Some of these products, like the MPC-2 , are kept in stock and can be purchased
in single pieces. Others may require minimum
orders to process. Custom hardware designs
usually require a minimum of 50 to 100 pieces
for full production, but sometimes orders
as few as 5 or 10 can be supplied. If you
would like to inquire about these products
or one of your own, please give us a call.
