Electronics & Firmware Expertise
Designing, developing and ensuring reliable embedded electronic systems
Our embedded electronics expertise
We cover the full electronic development cycle: design, firmware, integration, and validation.
Electronic Design
From schematic to PCB, with an industrial and EMC-focused vision.
- + Schematic design and routing with Altium Designer
- + Integration of sensors, MCU, RF, and power management
- + DFM / DFT preparation and EMC validation from the design stage
Firmware Development
Powerful microcontrollers for your connected applications.
- + Low-level development on STM32, ESP32…
- + BLE, Wi-Fi, CAN, UART, I²C, SPI communication
- + IoT: connected sensors, OTA updates…
Signal Processing & Data Acquisition
Analyze, filter, and interpret sensor data in real time.
- + Multichannel acquisition (ECG, EMG, IMU, temperature…)
- + Digital filtering, FFT, moving average, adaptive filtering
- + Sensor fusion and derived metrics (motion, posture, effort)
- + Onboard preprocessing before wireless transmission
Prototyping & Functional Validation
Bring your circuits to life to test, fine-tune, and validate your concepts quickly.
- + Rapid manufacturing of prototype boards
- + Integration of sensors, batteries, antennas, and RF modules
- + Assembly and functional testing in our in-house lab
- + Fast iteration before pre-series
Validation & EMC
Ensuring your products’ compliance and reliability.

Frequently asked questions about electronics & firmware
Do you develop both hardware and firmware?
Yes. We design both electronic boards (hardware) and embedded programs (firmware), ensuring full consistency between design, performance, and functional validation.
Can you produce prototype boards?
Yes. We manufacture PCBs through trusted partners, then test, adjust, and optimize them in our in-house lab.
Do you perform EMC and reliability testing?
Yes. We conduct pre-EMC tests with partners and carry out internal tests for power, communication, and robustness to ensure compliance before certification.
Do you integrate electronics into textiles or soft systems?
Yes, through our Smart Textile department, we integrate sensors, connectors, and miniaturized electronics into textiles or flexible structures to create connected products.
Can you support a project up to industrialization?
Yes. AQ-Tech assists clients from validated prototypes to industrial-scale series, preparing technical documentation, production testing, and transfer to SMT assembly partners.
