Kush Gulati, Ph.D.
President, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder

Dr. Kush Gulati has a combined experience of 15 years in the areas of high performance analog circuits design including analog-to-digital converters. In 2001, he helped co-found Engim, Inc., a wireless communications start-up based in Acton, MA, where he led their mixed-signal/analog group developing high-speed and high-resolution data converters. Prior to co-founding Cambridge Analog Technologies he was with Bitwave Semiconductor, a startup developing wireless handsets based on software defined radio techniques, based in Lowell, MA, where he was the Director of analog and mixed-signal development.

He received the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering and computer science with a Minor in business from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Cambridge, the M.S. degree in electrical and computer engineering from Vanderbilt University, Nashville,TN, and the B.S. degree in electronics and communication engineering from Delhi Institute of Technology (now NSIT), New Delhi, India. His doctoral research at MIT was directed towards the design of a low-power reconfigurable analog-to-digital converter. From 1993 to 1995, he worked on circuit techniques for minimizing susceptibility of DRAMs to alpha particles and cosmic ions.

Dr. Gulati has numerous publications and patents in the area of circuit design. His current areas of interest are high-speed/ high resolution data conversion and high-end analog circuits. While at MIT, Dr. Gulati received the Maxim Integrated Products Fellowship and the Analog Devices Outstanding Student Designer Award. He currently serves on the Technical Program Committee of the VLSI Circuits Symposium.

 

Hae-Seung (Harry) Lee, Ph.D.
Chairman, Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder

Hae-Seung Lee received the B.S. and the M.S. degrees in Electronic Engineering from Seoul National University, Seoul, Korea, in 1978 and 1980 respectively. He received the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1984, where he developed self-calibration techniques for A/D converters.

Since 1984, he has been on the faculty in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, where he is now Professor and the Director of Center for Integrated Circuits and Systems. Since 1985, he has acted as Consultant to Analog Devices, Inc., Wilmington, MA, and MIT Lincoln Laboratories. He is on the Technology Advisory Board for Sensata Technologies, and served the Technology Advisory Committee for Samsung Electronics and Cypress Semiconductor from 2004 to 2007 and from 2005 to 2007, respectively. In 1999, he co-founded SMaL Camera Technologies which was later acquired by Cypress Semiconductor in 2005.

His research interests are in the areas of analog integrated circuits with the emphasis on analog-to-digital converters in scaled CMOS technologies. Prof. Lee is a recipient of the 1988 Presidential Young Investigators' Award, and a co-recipient ISSCC Jack Kilby Outstanding Student Paper Award in 2002 and 2006. He has served a number of technical program committees for various IEEE conferences, including the International Electron Devices Meeting, the International Solid-State Circuits Conference, the Custom Integrated Circuits Conference, and the IEEE Symposium on VLSI circuits. From 1992 to 1994, he was an associate editor for the IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits. Prof. Lee is a Fellow of IEEE.
