    Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars


    Speaker: Dr. David Howard and Dr. Edward Preisler , TowerJazz

    Talk Title: TowerJazz: SiGe BiCMOS, MEMS Capabilities and Foundry Process Offerings ... Still Just 50 Miles From USC

    Abstract: In this talk we will briefly review process offerings from TowerJazz, Newport Beach, CA, which include SiGe BiCMOS, RF CMOS, Power CMOS and MEMS capabilities, including monthly SiGe BiCMOS shuttle runs...all still just 50 miles south of USC.

    The majority of the talk will cover TowerJazz SiGe HBT transistor technology application in a variety of emerging markets: high frequency wireless, optical networking, phased array radar, high voltage and complementary BiCMOS for analog. In the discussion, the critical device parameters for NPN and PNP devices, such as cut-off frequency, gain, noise figure, breakdown voltage, etc. will be tied to each market segment. Trade-offs in device performance in order to meet multiple criteria per market segment will also be discussed

    Biography: David Howard received his Sc.B. in Mechanical Engineering, Sc.M, and Ph.D. degrees in Materials Science Engineering, all from Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island, USA. His focus has been in process and device integration for new nodes, features and devices in Si-CMOS based manufacturing, in particular integration of CMOS, interconnect, passive devices, SiGe HBTs, and MEMS. He is currently Executive Director, New Product Technology, at Jazz Semiconductor, Newport Beach, CA, managing new technology implementation for programs that include MEMS, Bi/CMOS and Aerospace. Prior to Jazz, David held positions at IMEC, Rockwell Semiconductor & Conexant Systems (1995-2002). David was a remote assignee to SEMATECH (1998), participates in DARPA programs, and is a member of the ITRS wireless working group.

    Edward Preisler, PhD, Manager SiGe Device Group at Jazz Semiconductor, CA. Ed received his B.S. E.E. 1998 University of California San Diego, Ph. D. Applied Physics 2003 California Institute of Technology, and was a Post Doctoral Fellow, IBM T.J. Watson Laboratory, 2003-2004. In addition to SiGe BiPolar devices and RF CMOS, Ed has experience in High K / Single Crystalline Oxide Dielectrics, Antimonide Avalanche Photodiodes, Germanium-on-Insulator Processing and Devices. Ed is a member of the ITRS Wireless Roadmap Bipolar Device Committee and IEEE BCTM Process Technology Committee.
