Come check out our ISSCC paper, #10.2 titled “A 139μW 104.8dB-DR 24kHz-BW CTΔΣM with Chopped AC-Coupled OTA-Stacking and FIR DACs”. Somok will present our work on “OTA-Stacking” to improve the noise efficiency of circuits. Having already shown the benefit of this technique in an ultra-low power ECG amplifier, we demonstrate how this can be used in an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with state-of-the-art performance. Congrats, Somok Mondal and Omid Ghadami! Also, a post on the JSOE blog here.
Rapid CoVID-19 Antigen Test Funded
Our rapid CoVID-19 saliva-based test using an off-the-shelf glucometer was recently funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under the Rapid Acceleration of Diagnostics (RADx) program. Read more about our exciting work here.
Ultra-Low Power, PVT-robust Transmitter Published
Somok’s paper titled “A 67-μW Ultra-Low Power PVT-Robust MedRadio Transmitter” was presented last week at a (virtual) RFIC symposium. Check out his paper, slides, and recorded talk. Impressively, this work achieves the best energy-efficiency (67 pJ/bit) and lowest power among sub-1mW transmitters!
Opioid research funded!
Our Phase II STTR proposal with CARI Therapeutics was funded by the NIH. Read more about it here.
Congratulations, Matthew!
Congratulations, Matthew for winning the ECE undergraduate research award! Matthew is an amazingly hard worker and has been very productive in his time working with the BioEE group. We will miss him! Matthew will join the CMU Ph.D. program in the fall.
Our wake-up receiver work is in the news
Our work on ultra-low power wake-up receivers has been featured in the news. Check it out here or here.
Congratulations, Aditi!
Aditi won the Best Pitch Award at the Center for Wearable Systems (CWS) Symposia for her work on “An Ultra-low Power Temperature Sensor for Glaucoma Medication Adherence.”
Congratulations, Bassem!
Congratulations, Bassem for winning Best Poster Award at BioCAS 2019! Check out Bassem’s paper on modeling bioimpedance here.
