Examples of Our Work
Gunn systems
provides custom hardware design solutions for your microprocessor controlled
designs.
Our design
staff can meet your needs for digital and microprocessor based design
from quick turn prototypes to full
scale production, and we can do it quickly.
We can take
an idea for design from concept to reality and work closely with the customer through out the process. Our staff
has extensive experience designing microprocessor
based products.
Added with
our ability to do PC Board Layout
and Embedded Firmware in-house,
this allows us to provide a highly integrated design service that can
make your design a reality very quickly.

Intelligent
Battery Tester |
Gunn Systems provided PC Board Layout services for a major tool supply
company to develop this Intelligent Battery Tester unit, which features
a testing method that does not require the battery size to be entered
into the unit. Features include LCD numerical readout (showing percentage
of battery charge), LED Bar Graph Display, detection of bad cells,
and other LED indications. |

VMS
Controller |
PC board and design for control of Variable Message Signs. Utilized
off-the-shelf embedded PC microprocessor with custom packaging and
front panel design. Gunn systems developed PC board, hardware design,
and firmware design. System communicated on 4 serial ports and monitored
over 200 I/O points. |

Imaginail®
NailJet® |
Developed
a working prototype of an Inkjet printing device for painting fingernails.
The system involved design and development of an embedded system
using the 68HC08 microprocessor to drive a proprietary printing
platform. Gunn Systems developed the hardware, PC board, and firmware
programming to control the printer. For more information on the
device, click here. |

Nixie
Tube Driver & Clock |
For
those enthusiasts interested in vintage electronics, Gunn Systems
developed the Nixie Tube driver board and clock. The integrated
driver board allows easy connection to a microprocessor system via
the SPI bus. On board DC-DC converter supplies the high voltage
to drive the Nixie Tubes, and the board only requires +12 V DC supply.
Great for retrofitting vintage Nixie Tube clock displays, or new
retro designs. |
