Independent electronics design · Abruzzo, Italy
CVB Electronics takes electronics from a rough idea to a manufacturable board: schematic, layout, firmware and bring-up. We are also bringing our own boards to market alongside that client work.
Design services
Contract PCB design, embedded firmware, prototyping and independent review. You keep the sources and the manufacturing files. There is nothing to licence.
What we do →Our own products
Video bridging, antenna tracking and network streaming hardware, designed in-house and sold directly from Italy. The first boards are in development.
The product line →Services
Schematic capture through to manufacturing-ready output. Multilayer boards, mixed-signal work, RF-aware routing, and manufacturability checked from the first placement.
Bare-metal and RTOS firmware in C and C++ for 8-bit through 32-bit microcontrollers. Written so it can be debugged, tested, and picked up later by someone who did not write it.
Getting the first article off the bench and working. Assembly coordination, board bring-up, debugging and the iteration loop that follows.
A second pair of eyes on an existing design, or help planning one before the money is spent. Useful when a board keeps failing and nobody can say why.
Products
CVB Electronics is not only a design office. These three boards are on the bench now, and go on sale here once they clear testing.
CVB-CSI-HDMI
Presents an HDMI source to a single-board computer as a camera on the CSI-2 bus, so the SBC can capture or process live video without a USB capture stick in the path.
Details →CVB-TRK-2A
Two-axis controller for a directional antenna mount. It reads telemetry from the link, drives azimuth and elevation, and holds position using encoder and IMU feedback instead of dead reckoning.
Details →CVB-LINK-1
A small HDMI box that decodes a low-latency video stream from a PC or server on the same network, and sends keyboard, mouse and gamepad input back. It does the job the discontinued set-top streaming clients did, on open host software.
Details →Working with a small shop
Large consultancies drop small projects and marketplaces leave them half-finished. With a small shop you know who is working on your board, what state it is in, and what it will cost.
The limit is capacity: only so much work can run at once. If a deadline cannot be met, you hear it before you commit.
You talk to the person doing the work, in English or Italian.
Sources and manufacturing outputs are handed over at the end of the project.
Fixed price where the scope is clear, hourly where it is not.
Test points, debug headers and documentation come as standard.
How it runs
A call and a written brief: what the board must do, which constraints are fixed, and where the budget sits. You get a quote before work starts.
Schematic first, reviewed with you before routing starts. Layout follows, with DFM rules taken from the fab house that will build the board.
Prototypes assembled, powered and debugged. Firmware is written against the real hardware, and faults are fixed before a production run.
You receive sources, manufacturing files, a BOM with second sources, and documentation another engineer can work from.
Send over the requirements, even a rough sketch on paper. You get a straight answer on feasibility, cost and timeline before any money changes hands.
