Circuits and Systems Group

Home Research Courses Staff Alumni

Head of group is Einar J. Aas.

The Circuits and Systems (CAS) group is one of the six research groups at the Department of Electronics and Telecommunications. The group consists of eight Professors and Associate Professors and approximately fifteen PhD students.

The CAS group field of expertise covers a broad area of microelectronics design and test. In particular, the group is active in these areas: VLSI digital signal processing, HW/SW co-design, design and test methodology, low-power digital design, analog and mixed signal design, system-on-a-chip design methodology, and device modeling. We cooperate closely with a large number of companies, in particular through the organization Mikroelektronikkforum (Microelectronics Forum). Several of the group members have also gained substantial R&D experience from semiconductor and design companies like Nordic Semiconductor, Kongsberg Seatex, Micron Imaging (Aptima Imaging), Texas Instruments (former Chipcon), Eidsvoll Elctronics, and SINTEF.

News:

Anja Niedermeier is visiting us between January and March 2012. She is s PhD-student at University of Twente in the Netherlands. She says the following about her work: ''I aim towards a dataflow-inspired, small-grained multicore architecture with intuitive programmability. The architecture is self-synchronising and supports fine-grained parallelism and is targeted at streaming-algorithms. For the implementation of both the architecture and the compiler I use the functional programming language Haskell.''

We congratulate Udit Monga with the successful defense of his PhD ''Modeling and Characterization of SOI Multigate MOSFETs'' on December 16, 2011.
