Prof. Chan Carusone gives Distinguished Lectures to the IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society chapters in Ottawa, Kingston, and Montreal in January, February and March, 2016.

ee-timesAfter presenting it at CICC 2015 in San Jose, our work on ultra-short-reach die-to-die links has been featured in an EETimes article.

Die2DieLinkWith support from partners CMC Microsystems and Huawei Canada, Behzad Dehlaghi has designed chips to launch signals at extremely high speeds, 20 Gb/s per lane, and a miniature silicon layer called an interposer to connect two chips together. The results will be presented at the Custom Integrated Circuits Conference in San Jose in September. Read the full story.

Congratulations to Ph.D. candidate Shayan Shahramian for winning the Best Young Scientist Paper Award at the 2014 European Solid-State Circuits Conference in Lido, Italy. Shayan’s paper was the first to combine multiple infinite & finite impulse response filters into the same decision feedback equalizer at 10Gb/s, while also establishing a new bar for energy efficiency in digital I/O.

Prof. Chan Carusone will present a half-day tutorial on the Modeling and Applications of Injection Locked Oscillators at the 2015 NEWCAS conference in Grenoble, France, June, 2015.
