  • Opening keynote: Challenges of Ubiquitous Solid State Technology
    Dr. Ahmad Bahai, (CTO, Texas Instruments)

    Abstract: Astonishing progress in Silicon devices and circuits and highly reliable mass manufacturing techniques have prompted unprecedented revolutions in electronics for the last 4 decades to the extent that electronics is growingly permeating numerous aspects of our life. The application world, consumer and infrastructure, is now used to exponential performance improvements and high yield. Complexity and competitiveness of modern electronic systems demand for optimization across multiple disciplines. Joint optimization of device, circuit, packaging, and test are increasingly important for high performance systems. Design for Manufacturing and Testing is more critical but increasingly challenging in complex systems. So what does optimization mean for the future of ever-growing and complex solid state electronics? A daunting challenge worth spending a talk on.
