A few CASE STUDIES
- A MIL-STD-1553/mil-STD-1760 special transformer which was obsolete by the original manufacturer was created FC1760TI (Click here for data sheet)
- A inductive proximity sensor obsolete by Electro-Honeywell 4943 (Click here)
- Supported the update and repair of an Four Sided Street Clock where the original manufacturer went bankrupt and was damaged by lighting and set at 4:30 for two years (Click to see picture)
- Arranged for packaging of devices when a IC supplier did not want to support a plastic DIP package (Click to see picture)
- Developed a replacement source for minature transformer and inductors.
- Developed a replacement for obsolete RF SPDT switch
- Developed a replacement for obsolete RF Amplifier
- Developed a rack mount Hi-Reliabilty repacement for a specialized RF amplifier/test equipment for Satellite application including internet acces (see data sheet)
