Presentation

The Microelectronic Technology Division (TME) of the Institute of Applied Microelectronics (IUMA) has extensive experience in the design of Radio Frequency Integrated Circuits (RFIC) and Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuits (MMIC), as well as the modeling of devices (active and passive) for these circuits.

The first line focuses on the design of Radio Frequency Integrated Circuits (RFIC) and Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuits (MMIC) for different wireless communication standards and technologies such as CMOS, SiGe, GaAs, GaN, SOI, etc. Applications targeted by our integrated circuits include the Global Positioning System (GPS), Local Multipoint Distribution Services (LMDS/MMDS), wireless local area networks (WiFi), sensor networks for the Internet of Things (IoT), terrestrial and satellite digital television (DVB-H and DVB-SH), radiofrequency identification systems (RFID), satellite communication systems (SATCOM), etc.

The second line is strongly related to the first and focuses on the characterization, modeling, and simulation of semiconductor devices used in RFICs and MMICs, both active (transistors, diodes, etc.) and passive (integrated inductors and varactors) in different technologies such as CMOS, SiGe, GaAs, GaN, SOI, etc.

Over the past few years, the TME division has established a wide and stable network of relationships with major national and international groups through its participation in numerous projects at both national and international levels. Likewise, the group has extensive experience in transforming the knowledge gained into transfer contracts with companies in the sector.
