Prof. Chan Carusone appeared at the 2010 Custom Integrated Circuits Conference in San Jose, California giving invited tutorial presentations on “Energy Efficient I/O” and “Progress and Trends in Multi-Gbps Optical Receivers with CMOS Integrated Photodetectors”.
Prof. Chan Carusone lectured on Injection-Locked Oscillators at Yale University’s e-Lab in June 2010.
Ph.D. student Masum Hossain presented “A 6.8mW 7.4Gb/s Clock-Forwarded Receiver with up to 300MHz Jitter Tracking in 65nm CMOS” at the 2010 International Solid-State Circuits Conference in San Francisco, California – the world’s premiere forum for advances in integrated circuits.
MASc student Tony Kao received the best paper award (Gold Leaf) at the 2009 Microsystems and Nanoelectronics Research Conference held in Ottawa on October 13-14.
Our research on optical receivers for multi-Gbps systems has been highlighted by CMC Microsystems for its impact.
Our article entitled “CMOS Oscillators for Clock Distribution and Injection-Locked Deskew” appeared in the August 2009 issue of the IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits and immediately became one of the Journal’s Top 10 Most Downloaded Articles (#7 in August) and one of the Top 100 Downloaded Articles in the entire IEEE (#24 in August).
An article from our lab entitled “A 35-GS/s, 4-Bit Flash ADC With Active Data and Clock Distribution Trees” in the June 2009 issue of the IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits was one of the Journal’s Top 10 Most Downloaded Articles (#5) and one of the Top 100 Downloaded Articles in the entire IEEE (#21) in June.
Congratulations to Ph.D. student Masum Hossain, winner of the Best Student Paper at the 2008 Custom Integrated Circuits Conference for the paper entitled “20 GHz Low Power QVCO and De-skew Techniques in 0.13-um Digital CMOS”
Prof. Chan Carusone appeared at the 2008 CMOS Emerging Technologies Workshop in Vancouver, BC to give a presentation on “Reconfigurable Receivers for Next-Generation Wireless Applications”.
Prof. Chan Carusone presented a tutorial on High-Performance Chip-to-chip Signaling at the 2008 IEEE International Conference on Electronics, Circuits, and Systems, August 31st in Malta.
