Welcome to the Red Rapids website

imageWe offer a catalog of signal processing hardware products that are targeted at communication, telemetry, radar, spectrum monitoring, and test/measurement applications. All of our products are built around open architecture standards for embedded systems (XMC/VPX/cPCI), rugged systems (CCXMC) and server/desktop computers (PCIe). Feel free to contact us by phone or e-mail if you have any questions or don't see what you need.

A sharp focus on a single vision

imageIt has been over twenty years since our founders set out to produce affordable commercial products for high performance signal conversion/conditioning. Now after thousands of boards have been placed in service around the globe, we remain dedicated to that core objective. While technical innovation is obviously important, we recognize that the true key to product success is continuous customer service; before and after the sale.
