About Aravinth Kumar A R

A researcher having passion on circuits and systems.Currently I am with Silicon Labs (formerly Redpine Signals Inc.), Hyderabad as Senior Engineering Manager - IC Design where I involve in design and execution of high performance tranceiver circuits and, Mixd signal architectures for Analog Computing, in advanced CMOS technologies and, Silicon bring up. Prior to this, I was a post-doctoral research intern at Hypres Inc. where I involved in experimenting semiconductor-superconductor hybrid analog to digital converter systems. During this period I have been working on CMOS sample and hold circuits, CMOS five stage time interleaved pipelined ADC and superconductor ADC based on Josephson Junctions.Prior to joining at Hypres, I was at Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad as Ph.D scholar for six years. My Ph.D thesis dealt with different techniques for designing low power reconfigurable RF front end circuits using subthreshold region operation. Being a scholar in a young institute, I had actively involved in building two labs namely VLSI Design lab and Test and measurement lab which enhanced my technical as well as administration skills to greater extend. My passion on circuits and system was boosted through my first job which I joined just after undergrad where, I involved in development of embedded systems products including hardware and firmware. My expertise are CMOS RF/Analog/Mixed signal IC design and product execution, Cadence full custom design tools, spectre/spectreRF simulators, Calibre verification tools Matlab modelling, Linux administration, CAD tools configurations Embedded systems hardware and firmware
