End-to-end engineering for automotive Tier 1/Tier 2 suppliers
Schematic through automotive-grade component selection, potted assembly, firmware and functional test — one team, one point of contact, for the kind of prototype-evaluation build a Tier 1 supplier actually requests.
A typical inbound request: single-channel signal conditioner, PWM input, 0–20 mA output, 24 VDC supply, RS485 configuration interface, fully potted, 5 units for prototype evaluation. That's not a hypothetical — it's the kind of build we take from spec to tested hardware.
Full program ownership
Schematic capture, automotive-grade component selection, PCB fabrication, potted/conformal-coated assembly, firmware (CAN/UART) and functional test — coordinated as one program, not handed between vendors.
Prototype-evaluation quantities
5 to 25 unit runs are our normal order size for this kind of work — the same DFM review and quality discipline applies whether it's a prototype-eval batch or a larger production commitment.
Signal-conditioning and sensor-interface expertise
PWM-to-analog conditioners, displacement/pressure sensor interfaces, RS485 gain/offset configuration boards — exactly the kind of board our embedded and PCB teams are set up to build.
R&D partner, not just a fab shop
Where the spec isn't fully settled, our engineers help finish it — component selection, layout tradeoffs, firmware architecture — before anything is fabricated.
Frequently asked
Can you take a full automotive signal-conditioner build from spec to tested hardware?
Schematic, automotive-grade component sourcing, PCB fabrication, potted assembly, firmware and functional test — coordinated as one program under Inceptarc, not handed off between vendors.
Do you handle prototype-evaluation quantities like 5 units?
That's a normal order size for us, not a special case. The same engineering discipline applies whether it's 5 units or 500.
Can you help if the spec isn't fully finished yet?
Our engineers take incomplete requirements and finish the component selection, layout and firmware architecture before fabrication starts — this is a normal part of how these projects usually begin.
Which of your divisions handles an automotive build?
PCB For You fabricates and assembles the board, PartsForYou sources automotive-grade components, and our embedded engineering team handles firmware and R&D — coordinated through Inceptarc as a single program.
