Yes!

We are happy to work with you to ensure the application supports components critical to your business.

Make sure to send us an email with the request and we will reach out to you on a case by case basis.

The module is yellow because all the required connection are not yet satisfied. It also means that a module already in the board can satisfy the requirement of the yellow module. To make the module green, click on the Module, check all the Flags and see which ones are yellow, click on it, and make the connection.

The module is red because it has a requirement that cannot be satisfied by the existing modules currently on the board. To make the module yellow, click on the Module, check all the Flags and see which ones are still red, click on it, then the module library will display all the modules that could satisfy the requirement. Choose one required for your design and place it on the board.

Designs can range from simple single-sensor designs to highly complex multi-CPU multi-connector systems. Upverter manages all size and component optimization, ending up with a multi-layer device with components on both sides.
‍
Currently, we only handle up to six layers of PCB. If you would need more than 6 layers, do send us a message and we would love to discuss it with you.

Yes. Modules have components on both sides of the board. You can view the components on both side by using the 3D preview. For user interface elements like LED and push buttons, you can specify whether the component is on the "top-side" or "flip-side" and you can use dimensional constraints for exact placement of those elements.

Upverter supports a wide range of popular computer-on-module and processors (not just our own) from a variety of companies like Intel, NXP, Toradex, Raspberry Pi, Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, and so on. If you need something that isn’t yet supported, please contact us.

For off-board communications, Upverter supports Ethernet from 10/100 through GigE, and modules with wireless 802.11 (a/b/g/n), Bluetooth, and BLE; RF Serial communications and 4G-LTE.

Upverter will not place a lithium-ion battery directly on an embedded system design due to potential temperature issues. You can, however, connect a lithium-ion battery to your embedded system that is part of your device design and is located off-board.

We will provide you with a custom Kernel image that will boot up your Upverter board.

When you receive your board, download the image we provide, and boot up your board. This is what we think is the real magic of Upverter.

Upverter supports a wide range of components and sensors from a variety of companies like Intel, NXP, Toradex, Raspberry Pi, Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, and so on. We are constantly adding modules to the Upverter library.

But if you don’t find a module you need, please don’t hesitate to contact us and we might be able to add it for you. Of course, any new module that is not readily available may extend the delivery period beyond 15 business days.

Upverter is sweet spot is 3 to 100,000 units, for more, contact Upverter Support for prefered rates.

You do not have to worry about production information like layouts, schematics, gerbers, and even the bill of materials. Upverter manages the engineering process all the way through to production and supply chain integration. We work with our professional manufacturing partners to produce your production-quality board.

Yes, Upverter Engineering verifies all aspects of the device, from routing between modules up to operating system and documentation. We ensure that your board is fully quality-checked before shipping.

Yes. Just as is done in art publishing, you grant Upverter a limited, non-transferable license to have us make, sell, reproduce, distribute and display your design as applied to (i) manufacturing hardware based on your design, either at your request or at the request of your explicit or implicit designee, and (ii) sharing your design with third parties of your choosing.

Yes! You have the opportunity to share a design with the community-at-large or even share a design with just specific people on your project but you are never forced to share your design, IP is strictly protected in the case where you do not want to share.

Sometimes. There will be no setup fee for repeat volume orders of quantities over 100 units with no changes to the original board. For orders of quantities less than 100 boards, we charge $999 for fabrication fee. You may also refer to our Upverter Orders page for more information.

Yes! The design environment is free to use, customers get direct access to schematics, BOMs, or gerber files. You will also get complete technical documentation needed to start programming for your new custom device at no charge.

Yes! This is an extremely powerful capability that lets you track a customer down to the unique board level. For example, a customer can launch your authenticated software control panel right out-of-the-box.
