Who We Are

The careers of both principals have spanned the decades since microprocessors first became available.

Art Coté

Art is a seasoned electronics design engineer with in-depth product design experience including digital and analog circuitry, data acquisition, and digital signal processing. Adept in C and assembler firmware design, coding, and debugging, he is an imaginative problem-solver with sound analytical skills. Experience designing for rugged environments including automotive, industrial and space has led to useful knowledge in areas beyond his major discipline, such as optics, materials, machining and modeling.

Art holds BSEE (Lowell Tech), MSEE (NYU) and MS Management Science (Stevens Institute) degrees.

Pat Banker

Pat has honed her firmware development skills with extensive experience designing embedded systems for numerous industrial, commercial, and medical applications. She uses C and assembler to implement event-driven state machine architectures, frequently with emphasis on serial data communications. Pat’s background includes facility with development tools for various microcontroller and DSP targets. Well organized and an effective planner, she is a creative, tenacious problem solver with solid technical skills.

Pat holds BSEE (Rutgers) and MS Computer Science (Stevens Institute) degrees.

Company History

Banker Coté was formed in 1995 to provide convenient outsourcing of product design tasks to companies in a broad range of industries. Our core expertise is designing products that incorporate 8 and 16 bit microprocessors, microcontrollers, or digital signal processors (DSPs).
