The European Solid-State Circuit/ Device Conference (ESSCIRC/ESSDERC), September 17-21, 2012, provides an annual European forum for the presentation and discussion of recent advances in solid-state devices and circuits.

The increasing level of integration for system-on-chip design made available by advances in silicon technology is stimulating more than ever before the need for deeper interaction among technologists, device experts, and circuit and system designers. While keeping separate Technical Program Committees, ESSDERC and ESSCIRC will share Plenary Keynote Presentations and Joint Sessions bridging both communities. Attendees registered for either conference are encouraged to attend any of the scheduled parallel sessions.

Areas of interest

In addition to contributed papers and plenary lectures, the event will include tutorials, exhibits and satellite workshops to be organized before and after the main conference. An attractive social program will accompany the event, featuring a welcome reception, a gala dinner with awards ceremony, a farewell reception and excursions.
