I am Pintér Gábor, an Electronic Design Engineer with an MSEE and 40 years of experience in digital and analog hardware and software design. I have designed electronics for flat-panel displays, computers, touch panels, RFID systems, LED lamps, sensors, and robots. My core strength is PCB design, but I enjoy tackling all areas of hardware design, programming, product development, manufacturing, and automation. Since 2017 I work mainly from my home office as a freelancer, collaborating with Robart, Hilti, LRE and other clients around the world. I have built a track record of delivering IEC 60335 safety-critical hardware, capacitive sensors, test equipment, and complete product development pipelines, often using Altium Designer, STM microcontrollers, and 3D modelling with SolidWorks.
