Patrice Chartrand Email & Phone Number

With over 30 years of experience in designing schematics and PCBs using microcontrollers, I have gained practical expertise and in-depth knowledge in this field.I have worked on several innovative projects for their time, such as the design and implementation of a call center for restaurant chains in the early 1990s, the development of control modules used in electric cars in the mid-1990s, and the design of infrared gas sensors in the early 2000s.Throughout my career, I have always been entrusted with project management responsibilities, which have involved not only designing, developing, and testing products but also overseeing teams, budgets, and unexpected challenges.Among my proudest achievements are the development of motor drive modules and an infrared gas sensor.I possess extensive knowledge in applications involving microcontrollers, power electronics, real-time systems, sensors, and analog signal conditioning, particularly precision analog circuits.In 2011, I co-founded Dracal Technologies, recognizing a need in the precision sensor industry. There was a lack of a simple, user-friendly solution that could provide quick and accurate measurements without the need for hours of data alignment.As the Vice President and Director of the Research and Development department, our product development decisions are driven by a customer-centric approach. Despite my role as a decision-maker at Dracal Technologies, I remain fully involved in the design and development process. It is my passion!
