Tejinder Singh was awarded CMC’s Brian L Barge Microsystems Integration Award for “Miniaturized mmWave Chalcogenide PCM GeTe-Based Switch Matrices for Wireless and Satellite Communications Systems.” Judges praised his novel microwave switch networks, offering applications in telecommunications and consumer electronics, for its “low power, cost-effective transceiver using a modular approach, incremental solution at 67 GHz.” His presentation demonstrated contribution to every aspect of his project, including simulation, emulation, design and fabrication.
“The ever-growing communications demands of our connected world pose significant challenges to technology design,” says Gord Harling, President & CEO of CMC Microsystems. “This year’s TEXPO winners offer solutions to these problems that combine ingenuity with commercial viability. I salute them, and their fellow competitors, for their groundbreaking work.”
This year’s event, hosted at the Conference on Design and Architectures for Signal and Image Processing (DASIP) at Polytechnique Montréal Oct. 16-18, attracted competitors from across Canada.
Established by CMC Microsystems in 1992, TEXPO offers graduate students across Canada’s National Design Network a unique opportunity to demonstrate their novel applications of microsystems technologies to industry representatives and academic peers. Projects are judged by academic and industry representatives.
Congratulations Tejinder!
