Yun Chiu received his Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering and computer sciences from the University of California at Berkeley. He worked as a Senior Staff Member at a start-up company in Fremont, California developing CMOS digital imaging products from 1997 to 1999. Dr. Chiu was an assistant professor in the ECE Department of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign from 2005 to 2010. He is now with the Texas Analog Center of Excellence (TxACE) of the University of Texas at Dallas, where he is an associate professor of the EE Department and holds the TxACE Endowed Professorship of Electrical Engineering. Dr. Chiu received the Jack Kilby Award from the 2005 International Solid-State Circuits Conference, the 2009 ISSCC/DAC Student Design Contest Award, and the Agilent Foundation Award in 2009. He was an Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems II: Express Briefs, and has served on the technical program committees of the IEEE Custom Integrated Circuits Conference, Asian Solid-State Circuits Conference, etc. Dr. Chiu is an IEEE senior member and the author of the book Analysis and Design of Pipelined Analog-to-Digital Converters.

Kamran Entesari received his Ph.D. degree from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor in 2005. In 2006, he joined the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Texas A&M University where he is currently an Assistant Professor. His research interests include design of radio frequency/microwave/millimeter-wave integrated circuits and systems, related front-end analog electronic circuits, Micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) for microwave/millimeter-wave applications, Microwave-based integrated chemical and biological sensing platforms, and biomedical telemetry systems. He is the co recipient of the Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC) Design Contest Second Project Award for his work on dual-band millimeter-wave receivers on silicon in 2009. He is also a winner of Ralph E. Powe Junior Faculty Enhancement Award from Oak Ridge Associate Universities.

Vijay Rentala obtained his Bachelor's degree from Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani, India in 1998. He obtained his Masters degree in Electrical Engineering from Iowa State University in 2000 and joined Texas Instruments Wireless Business Unit where he is currently a Senior Member of Technical Staff. At Texas Instruments he participated and led the development of RF/baseband modules for various wireless cellular and connectivity applications. He is currently on an assignment to Kilby labs working on very high frequency designs for consumer applications. His areas of interests include analog/RF design for wireless transceivers.

Anil Sabbavarapu is a power management architect and logic design manager (for RTL and firmware development teams) at Intel. He has spent more than 14 years at Intel in various roles, including as CPU circuit and logic designer, CPU DFX architect, chipset validation lead, SOC logic design manager and SOC power management architect. Anil received a MS in Computer Science from the University of Utah and a BSEE from IIT Roorkee, India.

Erik Welsh received both his Bachelor's and Masters degrees in Electrical Engineering from Rice University in 2002. That same year, he joined Texas Instruments Application Specific Products (ASP) Business Unit as a design engineer working on complex Systems on Chip (SoCs). At Texas Instruments, he has had many different roles within SoC design and architecture, including peripheral and SoC specification, RTL implementation and verification. In his current role, he drives the security architecture across ASP and interfaces with university research programs while continuing to work on SoC design and architecture.
