State key Laboratory of Analog and Mixed-Signal VLSI (AMSV) had invited Prof. Boris Murmann, from Stanford University, for a distinguished Lecture on Microelectronics, entitled “A/D CONVERTER CIRCUIT AND ARCHITECTURE DESIGN FOR HIGH-SPEED DATA COMMUNICATION”. The event was held on 17th March 2014(Monday).
Prof. Murmann is an Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering at Stanford University; He currently serves as an Associate Editor of the IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits, the Data Converter Subcommittee Chair of the IEEE International Solid-State Circuits Conference (ISSCC) and as a program committee member of the European Solid-State Circuits Conference (ESSCIRC). He is an elected AdCom member of the IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society.
In this Lecture, Prof. Murmann pointed out the relevant circuit- and architecture-level design techniques for high-speed CMOS A/D converters. Moreover, Prof. Murmann interacts with the students while giving his lecture. Students presented their works to Prof. Murmann with discussion and advices were offered to the students. This distinguished lecture enchanced the students’ knowledge about the trends and opportunities in mixed-signal integrated circuit design.
