Co-sponsored by: CH06129 IEEE Seattle Chapter of the Solid-State Circuits Society and Circuits and System Society Event Please join us for the first of several SSCS and CAS presentations to be given on the University of Washington campus. 2-hour parking will be provided by the society in a lot near the stadium; parking details are forthcoming. Speaker(s): Dr. Brian Ginsburg, Agenda: Abstract: Millimeter wave frequency operation offers wide bandwidths, precise localization, and rich material interaction and penetration capability.  Meeting consumer demand for enhanced safety, 77GHz automotive radar is one of the fastest growing features in automotive.  Leveraging the dense integration and fast transistor performance of modern silicon processes, emerging MMICs are delivering higher performance in a smaller form factor and are also extending the mm-wave capabilities to other sensing markets, including intelligent infrastructure, robotic navigation, high accuracy displacement and motion sensing, and human interaction.  This talk will cover these application trends and how they are enabled by emerging radar ICs. Location: Room: ECE 105 Bldg: The Electrical and Computer Engineering Building University of Washington Campus 1400 NE Campus Pkwy Seattle, Washington 98195
