Joint Seminar on Analog Electronics with two exciting talks from:



Abstract
Analog/mixed-signal integrated circuits are essential in the interface between the cyber world and the physical world. Driving applications include autonomous vehicles, industry 5.0, biomedical wearables and implants, environmental sensing, smart houses and offices, etc. All generate lots of data in the edge devices, making local computation in the edge a necessity to limit data traffic and response latency. Progress in nanoelectronic technology in combination with emerging neuromorphic, event-driven architectures with dynamic learning capabilities allow to do this in a power- and hardware-efficient way. This talk will present some chip solutions being developed at KU Leuven today.

About the speaker
Georges Gielen (Fellow, IEEE) received the 998 M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from Katholieke Universiteit (KU) Leuven, Leuven, Belgium, in 1986 and 1990, respectively. He is currently a Full Professor with the Department of Electrical Engineering (ESAT), KU Leuven. He is a frequently invited speaker/lecturer and a coordinator/partner of several (industrial) research projects in this area, including several European projects. He has authored or coauthored seven books and more than 600 papers in edited books, international journals, and conference proceedings. His research interests include the design and design automation of analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits.
