Sensor Interface Nodes
Group Leader Prof. Ahmed H. Madian Program Director of Electronics and Computer Engineering (ECE) Sensor Interface Nodes In this track, we introduce novel analog CMOS designs for different applications such as analog front-end for sensor interface, RF- circuits, opto-electronics and energy harvesting. The group is also working on antenna design and micro-strip circuit design and implementation. We have used our designs in different applications such as biomedical wearable and implantable devices. We design our CMOS circuits for low power applications and high speed applications. Analog
Smart Integrated Systems
Group Leader Dr. Ahmed Soltan Director of Nanoelectronics Integrated Systems Center (NISC) Smart Integrated Systems This research group is working on implementing micro-controller based systems. Main challenge for embedded systems is the limited resources in memory, speed and power. We use AI to optimize energy consumption and also propose new implementations for AI algorithms to be implemented on a limited resources devices. In this research track, we work on novel implementations for low power sensor network and low power IoT for continuous monitoring of different applications such as smart
Digital Electronic Design
Group Leader Dr. Lobna A. Said Program Director of Microelectronics System Design (MSD) Digital Electronic Design This research group work on novel hardware implementations for algorithms for different applications such as image processing, hardware security and encryption algorithms. Hence, the outcome of this research is a hardware accelerators for different applications. We implement the modules using Verilog and validate its performance using FPGA kits. We also integrate the accelerators with different systems for different applications such as AI algorithms implementation and secure data
Non-destructive test (NDT)
Group Leader Dr. Ahmed Soltan Director of Nanoelectronics Integrated Systems Center (NISC) Non-destructive test (NDT) Non-destructive test (NDT) is a technique used in industry to validate the quality and specifications in the outcome of the production process especially in industries such as casting, rolling, forging, extrusion, material removal processes and oil and gas industries. Usually, these industries requires accurate and precise manufacturing as small displacement (in micro-meter range) causes failure in the process which is very expensive. However, using traditional NDT in
