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 serial data delay,
custom made for a radio network.
Lets you sync serial data to profanity
delays. Also can be used to
delay/sync RDS data for stations
transmitting in HD.
- A DTMF to Serial
converter for a TV network. Product
became the DT-232,
now on our website.
- 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.
