INTRODUCING FROM API ALLIANCE

The Modular Intelligent Controller Assembly Platform (MiCAP)

If you are contemplating a design, a controller or need to quickly test out some functionality, this plug and play add on technology allows you to configure a controller on the fly in a short period of time to test out your specific design needs. If your volume is small continue to use as is. If your volume requires it, you can springboard this quick development tool into a specifically designed controller. You can omit what is not needed and include the feature functionality you specifically require in the size and shape that fits your exact needs. Get there QUICKLY.

Testimonial

"The MiCAP board is a nearly infinitely customizable board with a strong PIC32 microcontroller at it's heart. We have a custom application that would normally require months of design work and several iterations to get up and running. The MiCAP board's 4 mikroBUS sockets make it a plug and play project, letting us get to writing the application code and deploying it on the board in days, not months. The PIC32 has everything we need in a mid-sized application; speed, peripheral support, and plenty of static RAM. As well, the board comes with several built-in items that are useful for diagnostics, including two LEDs, 2 digital outputs, an analog input, and a buzzer. We can use these to alert our end user of internal board status, something that would normally take a specialized cable and additional software or custom designed PCB components."

MiCAP S-Series

System on Module: Industrialized, Commercialized Intelligence

All the required interface options including the state of the art plug and play interface boards as the already released M-Series (microchip based intelligence) with a faster, more intelligent fully programmable SOM interface. SOM is an industrial grade microprocessor that integrates digital and analog functions on a single “brain board” for rapid software development. Allows you to apply cost effective custom modifications and own solutions based on a specific processor.

OUR SPECIAL

Programmable Process Controllers

With over twenty years of electronics expertise, using proven technologies, we developed a product platform that utilized a commonality of ideas, form factors, I/O connections, programmability, and technologies that seemed to fit a majority of applications. Later in the process, we added additional functionality and a microprocessor and the RMP platforms were born. Even though the RMP series is ready to use right out of the box, we can use these product platforms as a starting point for a semi-custom board, which saves you money on R&D expenses because most of the work is already done for them. We can then simply add or subtract the technologies, I/Os, and functionality that you need or don’t require for your particular application.

Our base platforms have become very popular with customers in agriculture, food processing for motor and pump controlling. Due to that demand, we have expanded the line which now consists of four main board models and some variations. This provides you with a lot of flexibility and based on your need we can start with the platform that closely matches your requirements for the most cost effective solution. In addition, you can have confidence because our platforms are factory designed, manufactured, tested, and proven in actual daily operation.

BLUETOOTH SENSOR SERIES

In today's marketplace customers expect and look for connectivity in the products they use. Now there is a cost effective way to get your products talking: connect them to the internet, send data to the cloud, connect them to smart phones and tablets. Now you can add sensing capabilities to monitor temperature, pressure, humidity, acceleration, motion, impacts, and more, and access that data remotely.

The BTS series is revolutionary; for the first time, manufacturers and end users have a low-cost option for adding WiFi/Bluetooth sensing capabilities to their new and existing products. API can add sensors directly to the board or add remote sensor capability. Or incorporate the components into your existing boards so there is no need to add any additional assemblies.
