IEEE Circuits and Systems, Dallas Chapter: Seminar

Title: Design Trends in deep-submicron CMOS with example of GPS-Receiver

Presenter: Dr. Srinivasan Venkatraman, Texas Instruments Inc., Dallas, TX

Date: Tuesday May 30, 2006. 6:30pm, Refreshments; 7:00pm, Program

Location: Dallas Texins Activities Center, Conf Room 1 (North end of Texas Instruments expressway site, 13900 N Central Expw.; site entrance on north-bound access road, between Midpark Rd. & Spring Valley Rd.)

Abstract :

This talk will highlight the implementation of a fully integrated GPS receiver as an example of system-on-chip. The issues and challenges faced in the design of such SoCs will be highlighted, along with the issues that are exacerbated due to 90-nm lithography. Measurement results and performance of such SoCs (as compared to existing multi-chip solutions) will be discussed. Finally, some open problems that still exist are highlighted.

Biography :

Dr. Srinivasan Venkatraman received his Masters and Ph.D degree from Indian Institute of Technology, Chennai in 1991 and 2000. He has been with Texas Instruments, India since July 1991. From 1991 through 1997 he was involved with the design of various mixed signal and audio circuits. Since 1997, he is involved in the system and IC design of RF transceivers. He has been awarded 8 patents in mixed-signal and RF design techniques and has published multiple papers.
