RF/MMIC CMOS Circuits/Systems for Emerging Applications
Fri, Feb 12, 2010 @ 02:00 PM - 03:30 PM
Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars
Presented by Dr. Qun Jane Gu, UCLAAbstract:
Wide employment of emerging applications mandates low cost, high reliability systems, for which CMOS technology holds high potential due to its unprecedented integration capabilities. This talk will cover 3 emerging/projected applications by CMOS. The first one is high throughput, low overhead RF interconnect, which addresses the exponential increasing speed and bandwidth requirements for sophisticated systems such as Network-On-Chip, System-In-Package fueled by deep scaled CMOS technology. However, deep scaled CMOS technology has wide spread process corners and parameter variations, which degrade the circuits/systems yield and increase the cost. The second topic then focuses on System-on-Chip self-healing techniques to build a reliable, high yield CMOS 60GHz transceiver for multi-Gbps short range communications. Thanks to further boosted speed, CMOS begins to find its arena in the "missing THz gap" regime. The last part exemplifies some CMOS THz circuits for high potential THz imaging system for numerous applications: medical diagnosis, military, biology, astronomy etc.Biography:
Qun Jane Gu received the B.S. and M.S. from Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, China, in 1997 and 2000, the M.S. from the University of Iowa, Iowa City, in 2002 and the Ph.D. from University of California, Los Angeles in 2007 all in electrical engineering. She received UCLA fellowship in 2003 and Dissertation Year Fellowship in 2007. After graduation, she joined Wionics Realtek research group as a senior design engineer on CMOS 60GHz transceiver for System-on-Chip. Since March 2009, she is a postdoctoral researcher in UCLA. Her research interest spans high efficiency, low power interconnect, mm-wave and sub-mm-wave integrated circuits and SoC design techniques, as well as CMOS THz imaging systems.Location: Hughes Aircraft Electrical Engineering Center (EEB) - 248

IEEE Student Professional Awareness Conference (S-PAC)
Fri, Feb 12, 2010 @ 05:00 PM - 09:00 PM
Viterbi School of Engineering Student Organizations
Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars
Join IEEE at USC and industry representatives for an evening of dining, networking, and story-telling! S-PAC is IEEE's biggest annual networking event with the industry, where students get the opportunity to hear professional speakers from IEEE speak about how to be successful in the industry after graduation and network with industry representatives for fulltime/internship opportunities. This year's S-PAC will be held at the Radisson Hotel near USC on Friday, February 12 from 5PM-9PM and feature keynote speaker Rick Hubbard, who will be telling us "What I Wish Someone Had Told Me When I Was Sitting in Your Chair." Participating companies include Boeing, JPL, Northrop Grumman, Qualcomm, Raytheon, and more... S-PAC is a FREE event for Viterbi students. Please sign up online and turn in your refundable $25 deposit checks to RTH 110 by 5 PM on Friday, Feb. 5th. For more information, please visit www-scf.usc.edu/~ieee or email us at ieee@usc.edu.
