Customers testimonials

We had a very busy time trying to design for low cost, low power devices with display and 802.15.4 radio. [ALCIOM’s] team makes you feel very confident, understand your goals at light speed. Maybe because they are entrepreneur with passion and that’s a difference!”

Gabriel Chegaray, Galeha

«Robert Lacoste is a first-rate electrical engineer, editor, and author whose regular Circuit Cellar magazine column, “The Darker Side,” has been a reader favorite since 2007. He has the amazing ability to clarify some of the most hard-to-understand electrical engineering topics for his readers, who range from seasoned professional engineers to academics and students. He’s one part innovator, one part problem solver, and one part educator. And this is why so many engineers look forward to each of his articles. Simply put, Robert is an “engineer’s engineer,” the rare sort of technical expert who educates, inspires, and amazes professionals and academics with his grasp of EE theory, design, and programming. And thus our organization feels he has the talent to educate and excite the world’s best pro engineers and programmers»
