Automotive Electronic Solutions

The automobile industry is rapidly integrating advanced technology solutions to enhance vehicle performance, safety features, and user experience. Top automotive electronics companies are working to meet consumer demands to make gas, hybrid, and electric vehicles smarter, IoT-connected, and more enjoyable. Key areas automotive electronics manufacturers like August can support include:

Apple CarPlay and Android Auto Integration: Allows your smartphone to communicate seamlessly with your vehicle’s multimedia unit, enabling access to calling functions and navigation systems through the vehicle’s in-dash display.
IOT Connectivity: Enables vehicles to communicate with other IoT-ready devices, obtaining information on traffic and routes, or for fleet and cargo logistics and monitoring.
Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS): Utilizes high-precision cameras to enhance external vision and driver monitoring. Self-parking systems use sensors to detect spacing and execute automated maneuvers. ADAS also includes features like adaptive cruise control, which adjusts vehicle speed to maintain a safe following distance, improving safety and the overall driving experience.
HMI (Human-Machine Interface): Incorporates intelligent and responsive user interfaces, gesture controls, and head-up displays that present critical information without distracting the driver.
Lighting: Employs intelligent lighting processes and capabilities to improve efficiency, safety, and functionality. Includes creative aftermarket lighting components for off-roading, better visibility, illumination, and overall vehicle aesthetics.

Frequently asked questions

Yes! We’re fully capable of manufacturing to IPC-A-610 Class 2 and Class 3 standards, depending on the requirements of your automotive application.

Most standard automotive systems, such as infotainment units, HVAC controls, and dashboard electronics, fall under Class 2, which demands high reliability and consistent performance but not the fail-safe redundancy of safety-critical systems.

However, Class 3 standards apply to advanced automotive technologies where failure is not an option, such as braking, steering, ADAS, and EV battery management systems. These standards require the highest levels of precision, quality, and durability, including advanced inspection criteria and process controls.

As the automotive sector evolves, OEMs increasingly adopt Class 3 even for traditionally Class 2 applications to reduce risk, improve safety, and align with regulatory standards. August Electronics is equipped to meet the needs of our automotive customers through certified processes, high-reliability soldering, in-depth testing, and a quality culture built around zero-defect performance.

We’re ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 13485:2016 certified, and approved to manufacture to CSA, UL, ETL, Intertek, TÜV SÜV, and SGS standards. Our team is certified to IPC-A-610 and IPC 7711/7721, ensuring your automotive components meet industry quality standards for reliable vehicle electronics.

We provide contract manufacturing services for a full range of automotive components, including engine management systems, ECUs, oxygen sensors, navigation systems, audio systems, backup cameras, LED lighting, and wiring harnesses. We specialize in manufacturing electronic systems for electric and hybrid vehicles, handling high-voltage applications and power components that electric cars require. Our expertise spans contract manufacturing for everything from engine management to comfort electronics and advanced safety systems for both regular cars and off-road vehicles. Our engineering team provides custom solutions to help optimize your designs for modern vehicles’ electrical system requirements.

We use multiple quality control and testing stages during PCB assembly and box build processes. Since automotive components play a crucial role in vehicle safety, our quality systems are designed to deliver zero-defect electronic systems that you and your customers can trust.
