Our customers:

ACT Futaba:

A simple Simulator for functional checks for an Automotive Electronics Body Controller module. Simulator is capable to check for multiple modes of operation of the electronics module and functional checks with two PWM signals generation.

Ballard:

A Simulator for software development; with CAN messages generating and monitoring capabilities (without a PC). Simulator is capable for multiple digital and analog inputs / outputs generation and monitoring.

Bosch:

Our work for Bosch started with this simulator box. Today we have completed a number of different projects for Bosch.
Central Power Distribution Box for all test equipment used for test and development cars during summer and winter rides and testing.
A number of different simulators built to be used at GM truck engineering site in Pontiac Michigan and Bosch for the Software Benches and product development.
Bosch ECU (Engine Control Units) Prototype samples customized for DV and PV vehicle testing.
GM Bench Software Development system.

Denso:

Car Simulator for the Cadillac Deville Instrument Cluster. The Simulator provides hardware for GMLAN - VLT and RS-232 communication protocols. Incorporated Function Generator, Volt / Amp / Frequency Meter / PWM meter etc.
For a future Cadillac Car to simulate an electrical subsystem we built this DHL Simulator. Simulator includes GMLAN communication circuits, position sensors, voltage / current displays, I/O's, PWM etc.
Instrument clusters simulator, customer: Ford. Simulator is capable for running and monitoring 6 Instrument Clusters in the DV and PV testing, run multiple test profiles according to Ford Test specifications. Ford specified High and Medium speed CAN messages can be generated and monitored during test. A compass and DIC simulation mode is provided using RS-485 communication. In the manual mode the simulator is used for the instrument cluster software development. Capable to drive external cluster loads up to 60A.
Instrument Cluster Simulator for bench use.

Ecostar and Ford Power Electronics:

A job that we did for Ecostar; Software development boxes with Analog and Digital inputs, dual voltage; CAN and RS-232 hardware to support communication protocols to emulator boards and PCs
Software development box built for Ford Power Electronics Division. Analog and Digital inputs, CAN and RS-232 hardware to support communication protocols to emulator boards and PCs
Ecostar Drive Systems Simulator box for software development.
Working on an Ecostar simulator box.
A Simulator for functional checks for the Auxiliary Controller module. Simulator is capable to check for multiple modes of operation of the electronics module analog and digital IO’s and functional checks with three PWM signal generation.
A simulator for the Auxiliary Motor Gate Drive Tester.
Software development simulators used for Prototype samples and customized for DV and PV vehicle testing.
Software development simulators used for Prototype samples and customized for DV and PV vehicle testing.

This is the first instrument cluster simulator job that we received directly from one of the big automotive manufacturers. The portable simulator is capable to test the instrument cluster functionality, do the day time or night time simulation modes for TALC development driving two independent instrument clusters.

Trunk latches and door Motors loads and body controller functions simulator.

TRW:

At the beginning we started with a few small projects than we had the challenge with this “Load box and function Simulator” development for TRW.

Seat Track Sensor monitor module.

SiemensVDO Automotive:

Instrument cluster simulator with body controller functions.

Simple Breakout box with harness.

VDO North America:

We had the chance to help VDO North America on a number of different Software simulator boxes and cluster bench simulators built for their use or to be delivered to the GM Flint development facility.

Car Simulator for the Cadillac Catera Instrument Cluster. The Simulator provides hardware for J1850 - VLT and RS-232 communication protocols. Has an incorporated Function Generator, Volt / Amp / Frequency Meter etc.
Software development box built for Ford Power Electronics Division. Analog and Digital inputs, CAN and RS-232 hardware to support communication protocols to emulator boards and PCs
Airbag display simulator box for VDO North America. Test box and module prototype was developed and delivered in two weeks, ready for the Technical Presentation.
Electronic Throttle Controller Break Out box for VDO North America.
Function simulator and control box for the Saturn Cruise Control module.

As a new customer for us, Webasto tested our capabilities with a number of small switch and door electronics simulator boxes.
Door Switches Simulator for bench use.
Sunroof electronic module Simulator for bench use.

Our first customer, Spectrum Composites Inc. approached us in spring 1997 to design and prototype a circuit board for their future product, Service Express 24TM...KEY DROP SYSTEMS. Design was challenging, requirements high. Characteristics: four layer PCB, 32 bit microprocessor, 2MBit RAM memory, real time clock, diagnostics, 80 drivers, etc. A year later the Service Express hits the market. A success; and C&S Electronics, Inc. receives the “1998 Supplier of the year award” from Spectrum Composites. Thank you SCI! Electronic board designed and prototyped for Spectrum Composites Inc. for the Service Express 24TM...KEY DROP SYSTEMS. Characteristics: four layer PCB, 32 bit microprocessor, 2MBit RAM memory, real time clock, diagnostics, 80 drivers, etc Development PCB for Denso simulator PCB for Instrument Cluster Software development at VDO First prototypes; Instrument Cluster PCB's for a Saturn car at VDO. Prototype level, hand build and hand assembled Instrument clusters for VDO. Display with RF receiver on 315MHz development for G5 Electronics. RF transmitter on 315MHz development for G5 Electronics. RF Keypad PCB with transmitter on 315MHz development for G5 Electronics RF Keypad and transmitter on 315MHz development for G5 Electronics. One example of the different combinations of wire harnesses we built for Ecostar. EMC testing requires sometimes special built test fixtures for data monitoring or RF signals generation. Sometimes for the test lab conducting the EMC/RF tests makes more economic sense to design and build the special RF fixtures needed for the specific test than to purchase expensive professional RF test equipment. A multitude of wire harnesses built for instrument clusters DV / PV testing and bench development. Up to 6 clusters and loads on the same wire harness. Hand build/modified ECU modules. RF "Silent receiver" on 315MHz development for G5 Electronics.
