Ours is a full-stack bio system-on-chip (BioSoC) approach integrating four key areas: | |
Sensors: High-sensitivity CMOS-based sensors for detecting biological signals with precision. Here we're mostly focused on DNA and cellular signal capture. |
![]() |
Analog: Custom analog front-ends for signal amplification and filtering, ensuring accurate data capture. We're particularly interested in leveraging advanced CMOS nodes for this work. High-speed I/O and on-chip power management are critical concerns. |
