Research Laboratory of
Integrated Circuit Design
Supervised by Prof. Hyun-Sik Kim
in School of Electrical Engineering, KAIST
Our research group is focused on innovations in the integrated chip designs of analog-signal processing circuits, sensory readout circuits, power management circuits (PMICs), and display driving circuits (DDIs). And ultimately we plan to build a complete system-on-a-chip solution by incorporating our knowledge in those fields.
