AEOK
Electronics development & contract manufacturing — Czech Republic

We develop your electronics to spec — and engineer them to scale into series production.

Every board starts with your requirements — your device, your environment, your constraints. We design it already knowing how and where it will be assembled, so the same documentation that builds your first prototype also drives steady, high-volume production later, run through our long-standing assembly and distributor partners in the Czech Republic.

What we do

Every step between an idea and a populated board.

We work as your hardware department when you don't have one in-house — or as extra capacity when you do.

Concept

Concept & sensor selection

We help define the architecture and pick the right sensors for the job, the budget and the environment.

Hardware

Schematic design

Circuit design ready for review, with component sourcing risk considered from day one.

Hardware

PCB layout

Layout built for manufacturability, EMC and thermal behaviour — not just for fitting the enclosure.

Firmware

Firmware in assembler & C

Assembler for Microchip PIC, C for STM32 — written early, alongside the hardware, by the same team that designed the board.

Hardware

Prototyping & iteration

This is where most of our time goes: working samples, tested in your product and refined for the robustness that series production and years in the field demand.

Quality

Custom test equipment

We build our own programming and test jigs, so every board is flashed and verified before it leaves the line.

Production

Documentation for series production

BOM, gerbers, assembly drawings and test specs — a complete package handed to manufacturing.

Production

Production management

We manage the assembly house, the component purchasing and the schedule, so you order finished boards.

Delivery

Packaging & logistics

Boards arrive ready to drop straight into your assembly line.

Why partner with AEOK

Built for OEMs who need one accountable hardware partner.

For manufacturers of HVAC units, building controls and similar series-produced equipment, electronics is rarely the core business — but it has to work, every time.

→

One accountable partner

You get a single contact for design and production. We coordinate manufacturing with assembly houses and component distributors we've worked with for years — the hand-off risk is ours to manage, not yours.

→

Designed to keep being available

We build around Microchip MCUs on purpose: long product life, rarely allocated, and a wide family of pin-compatible parts if one ever runs short. Your board stays buildable for years, not just one run.

→

Tested with firmware we control

Firmware lives inside the production testers we build ourselves. Every board is programmed and verified with genuine firmware before it ships — nothing improvised on the line.

→

Built for steady, recurring runs

What we're best at — and most often asked for — is taking one well-developed board into regular series production for years, not a single batch.

→

Predictive maintenance for production lines

Vibration sensors, machine running hours and other physical measurements — collected locally for later analysis, or streamed to the cloud in real time, with real-time notifications when something crosses a critical threshold.

→

Your intellectual property, protected

Firmware never leaves our team. During series production, firmware flashing — along with generating serial numbers, encryption keys, SAS tokens and look-up tables — all happens here in the Czech Republic, under our own supervision. Several of our solutions hold granted patents.

Proof, not promises

We don't just assemble boards. We invent products.

Before we ever pitch series production, we put our own hardware through the same process we offer clients — concept, electronics, firmware and enclosure, all done in-house.

These wooden cubes are the control interface for a decentralised building-management system we designed ourselves — heating, lighting, blinds and alarm, run from one box, built around the same Microchip firmware skills behind our client projects.

  • Decentralised building control — heating · lighting · blinds · alarm
  • −80 °C cold-storage monitoring, with its own datalogger
  • Door & access-control monitoring built for audit trails

Track record

Real projects, running in the field.

A sample of what we've designed and delivered for clients over the years.

Vehicle security systems

Engine immobilisation, notifications and geolocation.

Building security systems

Our own central units, installed and commissioned on site.

−80 °C cold-storage monitoring

Two installations of the same system, running in Slovak hospitals. In 20 years, the customer has never needed to replace either one.

Decentralised building & home control

Heating, lighting, blinds and alarm, run from our own controllers.

Custom IoT devices

Built to spec for clients across industries:

Geolocation trackers Environmental monitoring Energy-consumption metering IoT scales Pyrometer temperature → cloud Dual-band (L1+L5) GNSS railway wagon tracking — Galileo, GPS, BeiDou, GLONASS Tamper-evident parcel seals Production-line position monitoring …and many smaller projects

Every project starts with understanding exactly what the client needs, then designing for the value that matters most to them — saved data, saved time, saved money. Our team keeps growing, so we can take on larger production volumes too, with the responsibility staying on our side. We design to meet the certification requirements that matter — electrical safety (EN 62368-1), EMC/EMI (EN 61000-6-1/-3, EN 55032/55035), environmental robustness, IP rating, CE marking and, for radio equipment, the RED — Directive 2014/53/EU (EN 300 220, EN 300 328, EN 301 489) — with the exact standards depending on the product.

Under the hood

Technologies we work with every day.

Whatever your product needs to sense, connect or talk to — chances are we've already built something similar.

Sensors we commonly implement

Temperature Humidity Pyrometer Accelerometer Gyroscope Magnetometer Ultrasonic distance ToF LIDAR PIR IR-Grid Eye thermal array Strain gauges

User interfaces

Displays Capacitive sensors IR gates Barcode reader implementation Voice messages (sound generation)

M2M interfaces & cache memory

RS485 RS232C I2C SPI PWM control NOR flash A/D converters

Power design

LiMnO2 cells LiSOCl2 cells 12V 24V 120V 230V Battery-powered designs down to single-digit µA

Connectivity

Bluetooth GNSS Sigfox GSM NB-IoT RF transceivers — VHF RF transceivers — UHF RF transceivers — ISM band

Software

Windows apps Android apps Control & debug tools

We've also built trackers for Sigfox, GSM and NB-IoT networks end to end — hardware, firmware and the backend that receives the data.

1990

AEOK's engineering heritage goes back to 1990, when our founder began developing electronics in Bratislava. Three decades later, the same hands-on approach — small team, real ownership of every board — runs the company today from the Czech Republic.

What we're looking for

One board, developed once — produced reliably for years.

If you build series-produced equipment and need a circuit board done right, that's the project we want to hear about.
