About the Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (MTT-S)

The MTT-S is a transnational society with more than 9,000 members and 80 chapters worldwide. Our society promotes the advancement of microwave theory and its applications, usually at frequencies from 200 MHz to 1 THz and beyond.

For more than 50 years the MTT-S has worked to advance the professional standing of its members and enhance the quality of life for all people through the development and application of microwave technology. As we enter into an exciting future our mission is to continue to understand and influence microwave technology.

About the Electron Devices Society (EDS)  

The field of interest for EDS is all aspects of the physics, engineering, theory and phenomena of electron and ion devices such as elemental and compound semiconductor devices, organic and other emerging materials based devices, quantum effect devices, optical devices, displays and imaging devices, photovoltaics , solid-state sensors and actuators, solid-state power devices, high frequency devices, micromechanics, tubes and other vacuum devices.

The society is concerned with research, development, design, and manufacture related to the materials, processing, technology, and applications of such devices, and the scientific, technical and other activities that contribute to the advancement of this field.


About the OC MTT-S/EDS Joint Chapter
This chapter will aim at providing its members with interesting talks on a variety of topics in the microwave and electron devices fields.

The meetings are open to anyone. You do not have to be an IEEE member to attend. However, if you are interested in becoming an IEEE and/or an MTT-S and EDS member, please visit the IEEE Home Page . Our chapter meetings provide an open forum for discussion, as well as a place to network with your fellow engineers. Who knows, you might even find a job!!

Details:
3:00-3:30 PM Arrival

3:30-4:30 PM Talk 

Seating is Limited, please, RSVP by

Abstract:

This talk discusses the technology platform development for IC design in nano-CMOS technologies.
New effects and issues in nano-CMOS are reviewed before the discussion on the contents of
the technology platform. Some key components are briefly discussed with the exploration of some further
challenges to develop a RF SoC design technology platform. An advanced technology platform with
strong links to process and device behavior and efficient simulation approaches is critical to a successful
advanced IC design in nano-scale CMOS technologies.



Biography:

  

Yuhua Cheng received the B.S. degree (Honored) in Electrical Engineering, Shandong Polytechnic University (now Shandong University), Jinan, China in 1982, the M. S. degree in Electrical Engineering, Tianjin University, Tianjin, China in 1985, and the Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering, Tsinghua University, Beijing, China in 1989.
    In 1990, he joined in the Institute of Microelectronics (IME), Peking University, China. From 1992 to 1996, he was an associate professor in IME. From 1994 to 1995, he worked at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway, as a Visiting Professor and a Research Fellow of the Norwegian National Research Council. From 1995 to 1997, he was a Senior Research Scientist at the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences, University of California, Berkeley, where he was working on the development of BSIM3v3 (Berkeley Short-channel IGFET Model 3 version 3). He was the project coordinator and one of the principal contributors of the BSIM3v3, which was chosen as the first industry standard compact model for IC simulation by Electronics Industry Association/Compact Model Council and given an R&D 100 Award in 1996.
    In 1997, he worked at Cadence Design Systems and then joined Rockwell International. From 1997-2004, he worked at Rockwell Semiconductor Systems, Conexant Systems (a spin-off from Rockwell), and Skyworks Solutions (a spin-off from Conexant), where he was a Principal Engineer, a Manager, and a Senior Manager. Under his leadership the Skyworks technology group was expanded into a strong engineering team that plays a key role in developing Mixed-signal/RF technology for various (ASIC, analog, Mixed-signal, RF) circuit designs. From 2004-2006, he worked in Siliconlinx, Inc., which offers products and services to bridge the gap between IC designers and manufacturing foundries. He is now a full professor in Peking University and the Dean of a newly established research institute of microelectronics in Shanghai.
    He has served on many Technical Program Committees and chaired numerous Sub-committees at international conferences, including the IEEE Custom Integrated Circuits Conference (CICC) since 2001 and Radio Frequency Integrated Circuits Symposium since 2002.  He organized and participated in numerous workshops and panels related to RFCMOS technology and SoC design. He has authored and co-authored over 90 research papers, two book chapters, two books “MOSFET Modeling & BSIM3 User’s Guide” by Kluwer Academic Publishers (1999), and  “Device modeling for analog/RF circuit design” by John Wiley and Sons (2002).
He is an IEEE fellow and an IEEE Distinguished Lecturer of EDS. His research interests include advanced RFCMOS technology, analog/mixed-signal/RF circuit designs for system integration applications.
