About the session

Analog and mixed-signal (A/MS) content is increasing with the wireless market, specifically smartphones, growing at an exponential rate. While this creates great opportunity for analog/mixed-signal IC suppliers, opportunity comes with challenge. IC design is becoming increasingly complex as we move to the leading edge. For Europe to remain a competitive player in A/MS, its universities must produce students that can develop new solutions that tackle the most advanced design challenges. This panel looks at how to get students interested in analog, how to encourage universities to continue teaching courses in analog and keep A/MS talent within Europe; the importance of company/university partnerships; and the future of analog/mixed-signal.
