Frequently Asked Questions

What does Bay Area Proto do?

We design custom circuits tailored to your business needs. We will first select the proper components based on your requirements and budget, develop a simulation and produce a professional produced circuit board and hand solder it for testing. Upon final approval, you will receive all the design files needed to have your boards made from any third party service. For ultra sensitive applications, we can develop variations of the design using different components with higher accuracy, lower noise, less distortion, lower power consumption, etc.

Who uses your services?

Small to medium size businesses who can’t afford to have their own engineering department. Typically companies from the non tech sector that have an idea on how they can improve their production process. Currently we are only developing products for use by companies directly and not to be sold independently.

Why custom circuits?

Custom circuits save space and cost by eliminating excess adapters and modules, making production more efficient and scalable. It also provides you with a custom component that will not be available for anyone else. We are more affordable than you would think.

How do we start?

Contact us with your project details, and our engineers will help design the perfect solution for your application.

Are focus is on devices that serve a defined purpose; for businesses to take advantage of to improve their production process or to complete a commercial product.

• Stand alone device that processes information and passes along the output to another device, be it an interactive display, a connected computer (wired or wirelessly) or to a robotics assembly.

• Sub-components for a final product that intends to be sold.

• Customized versions of existing single board computers to reduce size or customize the available interfaces.

• Specialized add on modules for existing development boards.

• Modified components to extend or enhance an existing commercial product.

Discrection

We understand that it’s not the final product that determines a products success, but the process used to produce that product. As such, we will never share or publish any information about your design. If you have an idea on how to streamline your business, the last thing you want is for your competitors to use your ideas and implement it themselves.
