Hi there! My name is Le Yang. I recently graduated from UC San Diego and will soon begin my PhD in electrical engineering, specializing in electronic circuits and systems with applications in the biomedical field.

During my graduate program at UC San Diego, I gained extensive knowledge in integrated circuit design. I completed projects related to communication integrated circuit (RF) design, mixed-signal circuit design, and power management integrated circuit (PMIC) design. Thanks to UCSD, I also learned how to apply electrical engineering knowledge and skills to solve biomedical problems, such as recording and amplifying bio-signals like ECG signals.

Aside from circuit design, I also gained hands-on experience in circuit layout, which was a challenging but fascinating experience. During the project, I explored how to customize our capacitor array to ensure a very small chip area while maintaining good symmetry and isolation. I was thrilled when I found out our chip was going to be taped out. Those overnight sessions using Cadence were truly worth it!

Now, with a passion for designing multifunction circuits, I am excited to start a new chapter of my career as a PhD student at Case Western Reserve University. Let's see what I can achieve during my PhD. Stay tuned! 😛
