About me

I am a professor in the Integrated Circuits and Systems group of the department of Electrical Engineering of the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras. I work in the area of analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits and signal processing.

I graduated with a Ph.D. from Columbia University, New York in Oct. 2000. I worked at the Columbia Integrated Systems Laboratory under the guidance of Prof. Yannis Tsividis in the area of nonlinear analog signal processing for low power integrated circuits. I obtained my B. Tech. degree in electronics and communications engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, in 1996. Between 2000 and 2005, I worked as a senior design engineer at Celight, Inc. and Multilink(later Vitesse Semiconductor) where I designed integrated circuits for high speed communications. From 2003 to 2005, I was an Adjunct Assistant Professor and taught courses on Analog Circuit Design at Columbia University.
