David Binkley is currently Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, a post he has held since 2000. He teaches a number of courses in analog, mixed-signal, and RF integrated circuit design, and received the Tau Beta Pi "Most Influential Teacher of 2001" award for the college of engineering. He has a wealth of experience in the field of analog and mixed signal engineering, having been a practising engineer for over 20 years and having co-founded Concorde Microsystems in 1992 where he and colleagues developed custom, mixed-signal CMOS (complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor) integrated circuits. Previous to this, he was a senior scientist at CTI/Siemens PET Systems engaged in research and design of circuits for PET medical imaging tomographs. David has also been the principal investigator on a number of research projects receiving support from NASA JPL for micropower, analog CMOS circuits, and DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) for design and testing methodologies for mixed-signal integrated circuits. He has published over 60 papers and regularly gives short courses on optimizing analog CMOS design. See less
