Hardware prototype development through production

INTI builds working hardware prototypes around defined product goals and operating conditions, connecting circuit and PCB design, firmware, Android/iOS apps, and web/server integration. At the production stage, we directly manage parts sourcing, SMT and assembly through partner manufacturers, inspection, and the overall production process.

Capabilities

Hardware Development Capabilities

We do not treat circuits, firmware, and software as isolated tasks. We connect the flow from a powered board to data, Android/iOS apps, web/server interfaces, and production management.

Circuit / PCB Design

We shape the circuit around product constraints and prepare PCB, BOM, and Gerber files that manufacturers can use.

Schematics, PCB, BOM/Gerber

Firmware

We develop firmware for STM32, ESP32, nRF, AVR, PIC, and other 8-, 16-, and 32-bit MCUs, as well as TI DSP platforms.

Control logic, drivers, communication firmware

Wireless / IoT

We choose communication methods such as BLE, Wi-Fi, LoRa, and LTE Cat-M1 around field constraints, then check node and gateway links.

Wireless nodes, gateways, communication logs

Android/iOS App, Web & Server Integration

We connect device data to Android/iOS apps, mobile web, web dashboards, APIs, server storage, and CSV download flows.

App screens, APIs, data flow

Sensors / Measurement

We reliably read and log temperature, distance/ToF, Hall, ADC/DAQ, optical, current/voltage, and battery data.

Sensor interfaces, measurement logs

Power / Low-Power

We tune battery operation, charging, sleep modes, power measurement, and long-run testing for real field use.

Power data, low-power operating conditions

Control / Motor / Audio

We implement core board behavior such as motor control, state machines, watchdogs, and PDM/I2S audio input/output.

Process

Development Process

Hardware prototype development depends on reducing risk in the right order. INTI moves through requirements, design, implementation, integration, and real operation checks step by step. At the production stage, the work continues into manufacturing data and production planning.

STEP 01

Requirements and Risk Review

We define the product goal, operating conditions, constraints, and risks that must be verified.

Output: Requirement brief

STEP 02

Architecture and Part Selection

We decide the MCU, communication, sensors, power, Android/iOS app, and server scope, then set the development order.

Output: System architecture

STEP 03

Circuit, PCB, and Firmware

Hardware design and firmware implementation move together to reduce review issues before board fabrication.

Output: PCB and firmware

STEP 04

Android/iOS App, Web, and Server Integration

Device data is connected to Android/iOS apps, web views, servers, and file download flows.

Output: App screens, API, data flow

STEP 05

Prototype Build and Operation Check

Board bring-up, functional tests, power measurement, and communication logs confirm real operation.

Output: Test logs

STEP 06

Production Management

After prototype review, we organize certification test support documents, BOM, Gerber, SMT data, inspection steps, parts sourcing, and production plans.

Output: Manufacturing data and production plans

Partnership

How We Work

Our collaboration is built around prototypes that run on real boards and production-stage work that continues from the same development path.

Connected Scope

End-to-End Engineering

We connect circuit, PCB, firmware, Android/iOS app, web/server, and operation checks as one development scope.

Board-Level Check

Board-Level Operation Check

Real board bring-up, logs, power measurement, and long-run tests are used to reduce technical risk.

Production Management

Prototype to Production

After prototype review, INTI prepares BOM, Gerber, and SMT data, test procedures, and certification test response, then directly manages parts sourcing, PCB fabrication and SMT/assembly through partner manufacturers, inspection, and the overall production process.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions before a project starts. Use the inquiry form to send us a brief project outline.

At what stage can we bring in INTI?

From the earliest idea stage, even before requirements are organized. We start from the product goal and operating environment, then propose a staged development plan across hardware, firmware, Android/iOS apps, and web/server scope.

Can we outsource only part of the work, such as circuit design or firmware?

Yes. We take partial scopes such as circuit/PCB design only, firmware only, or app/server integration only. Many projects also start from existing products, such as board improvements or firmware maintenance.

Which MCU platforms do you support?

We work across 8-, 16-, and 32-bit MCUs and DSP platforms without being tied to a single manufacturer. Where development tools and datasheets are available, we support new firmware development, existing-code analysis, and feature improvements.

How long does prototype development usually take?

It depends on the scope and parts availability, but a single-board prototype is typically planned in weeks to months, from circuit design to operation checks. We review schedule risks during the requirement stage and present a staged timeline.

Do you handle production directly?

We manage the production stage directly. INTI prepares BOM, Gerber, CPL, and SMT data and sources parts, while PCB fabrication and SMT/assembly run through partner manufacturers. Orders, schedules, inspection, and production are managed by INTI end to end.

Do you provide KC certification services?

We are not a certification agency. Instead, we support design reviews that consider KC, RF, and EMI/EMC requirements, and prepare certification test support documents to reduce rework during certification testing.
