Our mission is to be the engine that gets innovative products to market at the best value.  It can’t be luck for us to deliver excellent value.  We base our product development process on two well established truths:

  • The fastest way to get a product to market is to do things right the first time, no matter how long it takes!
  • The cheapest way to get a product to market is to do things right the first time, no matter how much it costs!

Doing things the right way is the only way to drive for consistent results and to deliver exceptional value.  We are obsessed with learning the “right” way to do everything and then deliver on that promise.

Gotta Love Chips


Silicon chips have been changing the world for over a generation.  They have made global communication possible, expanded our vision, and enabled countless adventures.

At Transcend Innovations we take the power of the chip and use it in innovative ways for our customers.  We are a “computer” company that creates custom computer solutions for our customers.  We design tiny computers to do specific tasks like:

  • Communicate with other devices – Ethernet, WiFi, Bluetooth, NFC, LoRa, RF, CAN, etc.
  • Displays – HD, touch, LED, etc.
  • Triggers – buttons, IR, motion, sensors, etc.
  • Controls – motors, relays, computational
  • Output – Audio, Video, Haptic
  • Power Sources – AC, DC, Battery, Renewable, etc.

We help you find the right chips, for your application to provide a low cost and powerful solution to make your product smart.  How would a $20 computer change your world?

Firmware Development

What is firmware?  Firmware is the software that tells the electronics how to operate.  The world of firmware is rarely seen by users, but it is what makes our experience with computers happen and it is needed for almost every product that has a circuit board.
At Transcend Innovations, our firmware is different and better because we do it right.  How do we do it right?   By following a proven process for making sure the code we deliver is well tested, production quality code.  We take these steps with our code development:

  • Customer requirements are defined up front
  • A well documented and agile firmware architecture is established right out of the gate
  • Tests are written prior to writing any code
  • An industry recognized coding standard is rigorously followed and enforced
  • All firmware is maintained and tracked under version control
  • No code is released without first being passed through our suite of code analysis tools
  • Regular code reviews are conducted
  • An agile approach is taken where the requirement is adopted, the test is developed and the code is written all within a micro-cycle

By following these guidelines, we ensure that all of our code, regardless of the development state of the project, is released as a production quality code.

Electronic Design

The tiny electron has brought profound changes into our life.  Through its power, we have communication, transportation, cooling, heat, entertainment, intelligence and more.  All that power starts with the design of a circuit.  Transcend Innovations has the expertise to harness the power of the electron with reliable circuits that minimize your product cost.

Approach

Our approach to Electronic design is to achieve extremely high reliability in the most cost-effective way possible.  Each electronic design is the combination of hundreds of parts that all need to be connected by circuit boards, wires, and connectors. We stay on the cutting edge of technological advancements to make sure that the very best in process and technology is being used to produce the best designs.

From drawing board to production

Design and manufacturing are considered simultaneously at Transcend Innovations.  We work closely with manufacturers to make sure our designs are compatible with how our designs will be manufactured.  This ensures even greater product cost savings as the design moves into production.

Safety and Certification

Electronic designs are subject to a variety of regulatory standards, especially for mass-produced products.  Transcend Innovations provides support in getting products through the regulatory hurdles including FCC, UL, CE, FDA, FAA, CCC, etc.

Transcend Innovations is excited to get your product ready for mass market and significantly reduce your product cost.  Come experience the difference that comes with a passion for design and innovation.
