DARE Electronics, Inc., a woman owned small business, is a recognized leader in the design, development, and manufacture of high accuracy electronic and electromechanical devices for the military, ground support, and aerospace market.  In addition, DARE serves various other industries that demand high reliability products for use in critical applications and demanding environments. 
 

History

DARE Electronics began in 1976 manufacturing special relays, electronic, and electro-mechanical products for the U.S. government.  Through the years, DARE broadened its product offerings through its own ever-increasing engineering expertise as well as several acquisitions, including the acquisition of the Dayton Aviation Radio Equipment division of Allied Technologies and the Bristol Co. Syncroverter® product line.

 

Dayton Aviation Radio Equipment, acquired in the early 1980’s, specialized in manufacturing radio transmitters, receivers, and navigation equipment for military aircraft, including the P3C Orion.  Many of the parts originally designed by Allied Technology and the Dayton Aviation Radio Equipment division are still used today, and DARE Electronics continues to support these items in use around the world.

 

In addition, DARE Electronics continues to support and manufacture the Syncroverter® product line purchased from Bristol Co.  The acquisition of the Syncroverter® product line, which was completed in 1989, included both the miniature and subminiature line of electro-mechanical choppers previously manufactured by Bristol Co.   Miniature and subminiature choppers are electromechanical high-speed synchronous switching devices generally used to modulate or demodulate electrical signals.
