There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

ECE Ph.D. student Anvesha Amaravati won the Best Paper Award in the analog and mixed signal track at the 2015 IFIP/IEEE International Conference on Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI-SOC 2015).
Anvesha AmaravatiAnvesha Amaravati won the Best Paper Award in the analog and mixed signal track at the 2015 IFIP/IEEE International Conference on Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI-SOC 2015). The conference was held October 5-7 in Daejon, Korea.
A Ph.D. student in the Georgia Tech School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE), Amaravati was honored for his paper entitled “A Time Interleaved DAC Sharing SAR Pipeline ADC for Ultra-Low Power Camera Front Ends." This paper presents a novel ADC architecture that can perform in-situ inner product on analog data with digital coefficients while enabling wide-input. The proposed design in 130nm CMOS process advances energy efficiency of the state-of-the-art designs by an order of magnitude and is particularly suited for low-power camera (and other sensor) front-ends.
Amaravati’s coauthors on this paper are Manan Chugh, an ECE graduate student, and Arijit Raychowdhury, who holds the ON Semiconductor Junior Professorship and who serves as Amaravati’s Ph.D. advisor.
