Electronics Engineering Services

MicroType supports OEM teams that already have engineering talent but do not have enough bandwidth to keep every redesign, firmware task, subsystem, and validation effort moving on schedule. We take ownership of scoped embedded engineering work, carry it through prototype and production support, and you keep the IP.

No Handoffs. No Surprises.

We can carry a project from design through prototype and into production. That gives you fewer handoffs, faster iteration, and less disconnect between engineering intent and manufacturing reality.

Where We Fit When Your Team Is Overloaded

Whether you need help with a redesign, a delayed subsystem, prototype hardware, or production support, we can take on a defined scope and keep it moving.

Design & Redesign Support

We handle custom PCB design, embedded firmware, legacy redesigns, and development work built with DFM and production in mind.

Schematic capture and PCB layout
Embedded firmware development for bare-metal, RTOS, and embedded Linux systems
Technical consultations on board design, firmware, and manufacturability
DFM review and manufacturing documentation

Prototype Builds & Validation

When a design needs to move fast, we handle the prototype work that gets hardware built, tested, and ready to iterate without dragging out the cycle.

Production Support & PCB Assembly

We handle the build side after design and prototpying, from pilot and NPI work through repeat assembly, integration, and ongoing  production support.

Pilot runs and repeat PCB assembly
Surface mount (SMT) and through-hole (THT) assembly
Box builds and final integration
Engineering change order (ECO) implementation and revision-controlled builds

Industries We Serve

Whether you launch satellites, irrigate crops or automate assembly lines, our custom controllers connect assets, streamline processes, facilitate informed decision making, enable automated control and boost reliability.

Aerospace & Defense

Aerospace & Defense

In aerospace and defense, companies need systems that offer precision, reliability, and the ability to perform in mission-critical environments. Off-the-shelf solutions often lack the security and customization necessary to meet industry standards.

Water & Sewage

Water & Sewage

Water treatment and sewage management rely on custom control systems for precise automation and monitoring, ensuring that regulatory standards are met.

Agriculture Image

Agriculture

Modern agriculture depends on automated systems to improve efficiency. Custom control systems for irrigation, machinery, and sensor networks drive productivity and resource management.

Manufracting Image

Manufacturing

Manufacturers are constantly looking for ways to improve efficiency and reduce downtime. Custom controllers enable streamlined production processes, from automated assembly lines to quality control integration.

Electronic test Equipment

Electronic Test Equipment

We design and develop custom electronic test equipment and test fixtures that ensure your products meet performance and quality standards.

Products We Build

Our work spans a broad range of products in industrial, defense, and high-reliability applications. These show the types of systems we commonly support across design, validation, and production.

Battery Management Systems

Motion Controllers

Human-Machine Interfaces

Motor Drivers & Actuators

Why Teams Bring Us In

Legacy Redesigns

Replace obsolete parts, reduce cost, improve reliability, and update aging hardware without restarting the whole  product.

Firmware and Embedded Software

Pick up delayed firmware work, add features, stabilize existing code, or reduce continuity risk when too much  knowledge sits with one person.

Prototype Builds and Validation

Turn designs into testable hardware with fast iteration, bring-up, and validation that keeps development moving.

Pilot Runs and Production Support

Carry the work into pilot builds, repeat assembly, ECOs, and sustaining support once the design is ready for  build.

 Results That Matter

GPS-Based Spray Control System Redesign Industry: Public Health / Agriculture

A vector control equipment supplier was running their spray systems on aging COTS hardware which was expensive, going obsolete, and feature locked. We redesigned the entire GPS-based variable flow controller from scratch, consolidating multiple modules and vendors.

The result: dramatically lower costs, faster lead times, and a hardware platform they actually control.

What Sets MicroType Apart

Free Consultation

Continuity

We do not disappear after a prototype ships. If your team needs follow-on revisions, sustaining changes, or production support later, the context stays with the people who already know the product.

Design Phase

DFM Focused

We design with manufacturing, validation, and revision control in mind from the start, which reduces the redesign tax that shows up when prototype work gets thrown over the wall.

Delivery

Customer-Owned IP

Our customers keep their IP. Work is handled from our Florida facility, and for defense-related programs we support controlled technical data with oue ITAR registered processes.
