The IEEE Custom Integrated Circuits Conference, September 9-12, 2012, is a premier conference devoted to IC development. The conference sessions present original first published technical work and innovative circuit techniques that tackle practical problems. CICC is the conference to find out how to solve design problems, improve circuit design techniques, get exposure to new technology areas, and network with peers, authors and industry experts.

There are three days of Tecnical Sessions. The paper presentations cover state-of-the-art developments in integrated circuit design. Awards for Best Paper will be given in the regular, invited and student submission categories. CICC papers are also eligible for publication consideration in a special issue of the IEEE Journal of Solid State Circuits.

Poster Session paper presentations will be on Monday and Tuesday evenings in a separate section of the Exhibits Hall. There is also an award for the Best Poster.

The Educational Sessions, Panels, and Forums are presented throughout the conference to enrich the learning experience of the attendees. The Educational Sessions are full day tutorials instructed by recognized invited speakers. The Panel Discussions and Forums are presented by leaders from the IC industry.

CICC includes an Exhibits Hall that is open in the evenings where Semiconductor manufacturers, software tool suppliers, silicon IP providers, design-service houses, and technical book publishers offer displays and demonstrations of their products.
