"strong emphasis on practical and dependable engineering"
Firmtronics provides professional PCB design services for businesses or individuals requiring reliable, manufacturable, and cost-effective electronic solutions. From initial concept through to production-ready hardware, Firmtronics can take customer technology requirements and implement them into a complete PCB-based solution tailored to the application.
In addition to new product development, Firmtronics can review and improve existing customer PCB designs. This includes optimising circuit implementation, improving reliability and manufacturability, reducing costs, and adding new functionality to extend the capabilities of existing products.
Firmtronics places strong emphasis on practical and dependable engineering. Wherever possible, designs utilise easy-to-source components with long manufacturing lifetimes, proven reliability records, and competitive pricing. PCB layouts are developed with safety and EMC compliance as key priorities to help support robust operation and smoother certification processes.
Using Fusion Electronics by Autodesk for schematic capture and PCB design, Firmtronics delivers modern and maintainable electronic designs backed by an extensive in-house library of commonly used components, helping to streamline development time and improve consistency across projects.
Firmtronics can also supply low-volume validated prototypes for testing and evaluation, and can assist customers in transitioning designs into larger-scale production through manufacturing contractors and production partners.

"from simple microcontroller products through to complex FPGA"
Firmtronics provides professional firmware development services for embedded systems ranging from simple microcontroller products through to complex FPGA and programmable logic applications. Whether you require modifications to an existing code base, additional functionality for a legacy product, or complete firmware development from concept to production, Firmtronics can deliver a solution tailored to your requirements.
Our experience spans a wide range of embedded technologies including microcontrollers, System-on-Chip (SoC) devices, CPLDs, and FPGAs. Development can be undertaken using industry-standard languages and methodologies including C, C++, Assembly Language, VHDL, Verilog, and schematic-based logic capture. We support devices from leading semiconductor manufacturers including STMicroelectronics, Microchip, NXP, Texas Instruments, AMD Xilinx, and Intel FPGA.
To accelerate development and reduce project costs, Firmtronics leverages modern AI-assisted engineering tools alongside a large library of proven firmware, communication, and logic modules. However, AI is used only as a development aid. Every software and hardware component incorporated into a project is fully reviewed, understood, tested, and documented by an experienced engineer before release. This approach combines the efficiency of modern development techniques with the reliability and traceability expected in professional engineering environments.
For microcontroller applications, Firmtronics develops firmware for a wide range of communication and peripheral interfaces including UART, SPI, I²C, CAN, USB, Ethernet, ADC, DAC, PWM, wireless technologies, and custom protocols. Solutions may range from lightweight interrupt-driven systems through to complex applications utilising Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS) and multi-threaded architectures.
For FPGA and programmable logic designs, all logic is developed using disciplined synchronous design practices. Modules are verified through simulation and timing analysis, with careful attention given to clock-domain crossings, metastability mitigation, resource utilisation, and timing closure. Firmtronics maintains a library of verified logic and communication cores that can significantly reduce development time while maintaining a high level of reliability.
All firmware is developed using structured and maintainable coding practices to maximise long-term supportability and reusability. Source code is organised into modular components, supported by comprehensive documentation, and managed through modern version control systems.
From initial concept and architecture through to testing, validation, manufacturing support, and ongoing maintenance, Firmtronics delivers firmware solutions designed for reliability, performance, and long product lifecycles.

"All repairs carry a 6 months warranty"
Firmtronics offers a repair service for faulty electronic devices.
Often, only a single electronic component has failed, rendering your device unusable. In some cases, it may be more cost-effective to purchase a new unit rather than repair the existing one. This generally depends on the age, original cost, and complexity of the electronic device.
We generally accept most electronic items and specialise in the repair of the following:
- Audio Equipment (Amplifiers, Mixers, Compressors & Microphones)
- Musical Instruments (Digital Pianos, Keyboards & Synthesisers)
- Computers
- Gaming Consoles
- Automotive Products
- Marine Products
- Electronic Testing Equipment
All repairs carry a 6-month warranty on the specific item that was repaired. New faults unrelated to the recent repair work are not covered.
Electronic Repair Pricing:
| Initial Fault Diagnosis: | $130 AUD (ex GST) |
| Repair Labour: | $130 AUD (ex GST) per hour |
The initial fault diagnosis includes disassembly of the unit, diagnostic testing, and reassembly.
Parts are charged at cost price plus 10% for postage and handling.
Shipping of the repaired electronic device back to the customer is charged at the shipping vendor's rate.
