Wireless networking is one of our core competencies. Give your products the ultimate flexibility, or let them work together with other devices by adding wireless capabilities.

From simple and low cost 315/433 MHz radios to WiFi, Bluetooth, or ZigBee applications, we’ll find the right solution for your needs.

We can also help you go completely wireless by making your products battery operated.

MMB has extensive experience in energy efficient and battery operated devices. In many cases we can significantly reduce your products’ power consumption, increasing its efficiency, and reducing excess heat.

In addition to the satisfaction of having a “greener” product, this will allow you to move to a smaller form factor, broaden environmental tolerances, meet energy regulations and market your product as an energy efficient solution.

Using this expertise, we can also work with you to develop battery-operated options for your products, giving them the ultimate in flexibility. For communicating products, we can further cut your tethers by adding wireless communication.

Flash memory is now an extremely affordable component. Add memory to give your product the ability to store data or more complex software, or significantly increase its existing capacity.

MMB can help you capture costs savings from new technology by upgrading your microcontrollers to new generations with more memory and program space, at a lower cost than your current chips.

If your existing microcontroller is more than two years old, you could likely realize a savings of 25-50%.

Giving your product intelligence has never been more affordable.

Add motion, tilt, proximity or accelerometer sensors to make your products more interactive and intuitive.

Add temperature, humidity, or other environmental sensors to monitor operating conditions, or let your product respond to its surroundings.

Add motion or other occupancy sensors to give your product new power management capabilities.

Many older electronics were designed using through hole components; many - if not all - of which can now be replaced with their cheaper surface mount counterparts.

Upgrading to surface mount components can significantly reduce your PCB size, allowing for a much smaller form factor, and dramatically cut manufacturing costs and time.

In today’s technology environment, devices are increasingly expected to interoperate. Adding support for additional communications protocols, or turning a proprietary protocol into a standards-based one can open up your product to new markets and applications.

MMB can upgrade your product to communicate using RS-232, RS-485, USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, ZigBee, and many others.

Your products’ power requirements can be a limiting factor in their ability to integrate with other products or environments. MMB can upgrade your product to operate on a broader range of power supplies.

We always try to make your upgrades as seamless as possible. But sometimes upgrading your product may require updates to its enclosure to accommodate new ports or components. Or you may want to give your product new mounting options, a different form factor, or just a more modern look.

MMB has extensive experience in enclosure design, material selection, and testing, and relationships with domestic and overseas manufacturers.
