Profile

Jose Luis Gonzalez-Jimenez (M’99, SM’12) received the Diploma in telecommunication engineering from Ramon Llull University, Barcelona, Spain, in 1992, and both the M.S. degree in telecommunications engineering and the Ph.D. degree (with Hons.) in electronic engineering from the Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya (UPC), Barcelona, in 1994 and 1998, respectively. He received the “Habilitation à Diriger des Recherches” degree from the Grenoble University, France, in 2013.

He is currently a Research Director at CEA/LETI, Grenoble, France, and invited lecturer at Phelma Engineering School, Grenoble-Alpes University. Till 2011, he was a Full-Time Associate Professor at the Department of Electronic Engineering, Univ. Politecnica of Catalonia (UPC). From January to July 1999, he was awarded a Fulbright Fellowship and worked as a Guest Researcher with the University of Arizona, Tucson, where he collaborated with Motorola in the design of high-speed digital-to-analog converters. From September 2007 to August 2008, he was a Visiting Researcher with the STMicroelectronics/CEA-LETI joint Advanced Research Laboratory at Minatec, Grenoble, France, where he was engaged in research on the design of millimeter-wave oscillators and substrate noise coupling in millimeter-wave CMOS integrated circuits (ICs). In 2013 he was appointed as Senior Expert at CEA-LETI and since 2015 he serves as the deputy head of the RFIC design laboratory. He has been leading and participating in several international projects both collaborative research project and contracts with companies. He regularly collaborates as a reviewer in the journals IEEE Transactions of Circuits and Systems (I & II), IEEE Microwaved and Wireless Components Letters, IEE Electronics Letters, IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques, among others, and serves regularly in the technical program committee of several international conferences, including IEEE IMS, ESSCIRC and NEWCAS. He is the author of two books, a book chapter, 38  international journal papers, and more than 90 conference papers. He holds 18 patents. His research interests include very large-scale integration design, mixed-signal/RF and mmW ICs, silicon photonics, and signal and power integrity in SoC and RFICs.
