What is electronic design technology?

Electronic Design and Applications focuses on device and integrated circuit fabrication, circuit and system design and simulation, and instrumentation and testing techniques.​

Electronic design and applications is a vital area of electrical engineering, encompassing the experimentation, design, modeling, simulation and analysis of single devices or circuits as well as complete signal processing systems.

Research

Electronic Design and Applications (EDA) faculty is engaged in a range of basic and applied research projects supported by governmental and industry sponsors like Analog Devices, AT&T, Hewlett-Packard, Texas Instruments, Lockheed-Martin, Boeing, Linear Technology, Keithley Instruments, Cypress Semiconductor, the National Science Foundation, the National Security Agency, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, and the U.S. Army Research Office.

Electronic Design and Applications research falls within the following major areas:

• MEMS Devices and Circuits
• Analog Electronics and VLSI
• Radio-Frequency (Wireless) Integrated Circuits (RFIC)
• mmWave and THz Circuits for Remote Sensing and Communications
• High-speed Mixed-signal Systems
• Biomedical and Wearable Electronics
• Sensing Microsystems and Energy Harvesting
• Power-management Integrated Circuits
