Message from the CEO
Sorry for the delay getting our new standard products out, but we are still busier than EVER developing custom products for our clients!
You've seen the TPC-35A, our HMI board/display combo for embedding into products.
Then our TPC-43A, a standalone computer in a wall-mount case with a beautiful 480x272-pixel TFT display (and touch-screen).
Then our TPC-35B, another 3.5" TFT touch-screen LCD computer with dual Ethernet ports in a sexy plastic enclosure.
Then our TPC-43B. It's an upgraded TPC-43A with Power Over Ethernet (POE) to reduce cabling and installation costs.
Now we've launched our TPC-43C. It's a TPC-43B with no plastic parts, made from recycled steel. Plus, its also low-profile, and still includes POE to reduce cabling and installation costs. This latest device generates a super low carbon footprint, and is an ideal HMI for Building Automation Systems (BAS) or other building controls applications. For industrial HMI, it requires nothing more than a rectangular hole to mount and secure into steel equipment. How easy is that?
But we're not stopping there.
Watch for more touch-panel computers, with different sizes of displays, and different mixtures of peripherals.
If there's some combination you need, please call.
Maybe we can tweak the next design to meet your exact needs.
And if not, please remember that cost-effective, custom-designed products are our core business.
What is Techsol's Medallion System?
Techsol is a North American (NAFTA) corporation providing low-cost out-sourcing of your embedded technology design and board fabrication. We offer a variety of products and programs that will get you to market quicker using our proven ARM/Linux platform to mitigate risks. We make a bit of margin on hardware sales, but we save you a huge amount of development cost, resulting in a net positive return-on-investment (ROI) when using Techsol's Medallion System for product design!
Like the North American companies who act as agents for off-shore out-sourcing companies, we offer these benefits:
- Our staff speaks English (and also Mandarin and Cantonese)
- We are in your time zone (or very close to it): we're on Pacific Time.
- Most likely, we can visit your site for a meeting and return in the same day (or vice versa)
But, unlike North American companies who act as agents for off-shore out-sourcing companies, we offer these benefits:
- Engineering is performed in North America
- Production is performed in North America
- You are not spending any extra money dealing with a middle-man.
The net effect is that we can get you to your goals faster, cheaper, better than by any other means.
And our proven hardware and software platform minimizes your project's risk elements!
Your Semi-Custom Medallion-based Product

Our software comes pre-configured for your platform, along with any desired third-party IP (such as Java) when you purchase our hardware. All licensing and royalty costs are included in the product cost. You can develop your own applications software using one of our development kits or we can develop it for you!
We can offer this level of product-design acceleration to our customers because of the tight integration of hardware and software in our platform's design.
Techsol Can Solve Your Problems!
We can help in many ways.
We design and manufacture custom and "semi-custom" products quickly and efficiently (AKA for minimal cash outlay!) With a broad depth of commercial, industrial, medical, security, and consumer product designs under our belt, you get the advantages of a team that can compete internationally in all these areas working for you!
- Do you need to create a new product?
- Or just update an existing product?
- Do you need to update your product so it can connect to the Internet?
- Do you need to update your display to a (color) LCD screen? With Touch?
- Do you want to design your own PCBs and just plug in the most advanced computer module?
- Or do you want a fresh product that is fully-featured, robust, low-cost and leading-edge?
We can do any combination of the above.

And we will adapt our services to meet your needs!
The Original 50mm Square ARM-Linux CPU Module

While this started a trend back in 2002, there is still no other computer this small,
with USB host ports, LCD and Touch controllers, Audio, and a 32-bit expansion bus at this price.
