About the author

Anton Montagne (Leiden, 1953) received his master’s degree in electrical engineering in 1984 at the Delft University of Technology. In 1983, he joined Philips Semiconductors in Nijmegen where he designed analog integrated circuits for audio and video applications. At Philips, he also set up training courses on analog electronics. In 1986, he cofounded the product development company Product Partners where he carried out many analog designs in the field of instrumentation. In 1989, together with Catena Microelectronics, Delft University of Technology, and the Institute of Microelectronics in Stuttgart, he cooperated in the development of an intensive training course, covering many topics of analog information processing. Since 1997, he has worked as an independent consultant, trainer, and designer in the field of analog electronics. Over the past 38 years, he developed analog electronics for instrumentation and communication systems for the industry and carried out many training courses on analog electronics at, amongst others, Catena Microelectronics, Philips Semiconductors, Philips Medical Systems, NXP, Ericsson, Plessey, Texas Instruments, ASML, TNO, Bruco IC design, 3T, Carl Zeiss SMT, TMC and ASMPT.

Anton Montagne is the inventor and coinventor of patents in the fields of position sensors, imaging, charge-coupled devices, and high-stability crystal oscillators.

Since 2016 Anton Montagne is coaching students and giving lectures and masterclasses “Structured Electronics Design” at the Delft University of Technology.
