From Design House
to Product Innovator.
Founded in 2016, Linear Circuits began as an electronics design house dedicated to providing high-quality electronic product design services to clients across industries.
Over the years, we successfully developed products spanning Industrial IoT, Consumer Electronics, Smart Homes, Commercial Building Automation, Solar, and Medical applications. Through hands-on experience and continuous collaboration with our clients, we built deep expertise in designing robust embedded systems for reliability and long-term performance in real-world environments.
In 2022, leveraging our accumulated experience and valuable client feedback, we launched Actchip — our own line of products targeted at domains where we have gained significant expertise.
Actchip products are designed as robust monitoring and control solutions that are ready for field deployment from day one, built on industry-standard open protocols to ensure interoperability, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness.
While we continue to provide electronic design services, we encourage clients to first explore our existing product portfolio — in many cases our ready-to-deploy solutions save valuable development time and avoid reinventing proven technology.
Domains We've
Delivered In.
Over a decade of hands-on product development across six core industry verticals — from Industrial IoT to Medical electronics. Each domain has shaped our deep understanding of real-world reliability requirements.
