Postdoc CMOS Circuits for MEMS Flow Sensors

Job description

In this postdoc position at TU Delft, you will conduct research into CMOS circuits for next-generation MEMS flow sensors, focusing on Coriolis and thermal sensing technologies. You will investigate how sensor physics and analog circuit design can be combined to develop innovative solutions for accurate and effective flow measurement.

Your work will involve experimental research, circuit design and simulation. You will explore the interaction between MEMS sensor dynamics, heat transfer and electronic readout circuits, contributing to the development of new sensor systems.

You will join a research environment where you can contribute your chip-design expertise to innovative sensor technology. You will independently conduct research, evaluate results and communicate your findings through scientific publications and presentations.

Job requirements

• You hold a PhD degree in Electrical Engineering or a closely related field.
• You have demonstrable experience in integrated circuit (IC) design, evidenced by at least one publication in an IEEE journal on circuit design, such as the IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits (JSSC) or IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems (TCAS).
• You have a solid understanding of analog circuit design and sensor-based systems.
• You have a strong understanding of sensor physics, particularly MEMS dynamics and heat transfer.
• You can independently conduct experimental and simulation-based research.
• You communicate scientific findings clearly through writing and presentations.
• You have an excellent command of written and spoken English.

TU Delft (Delft University of Technology)

At TU Delft, our people make the difference. With their knowledge and curiosity, our staff provide a high-quality education and conduct pioneering research that extends beyond the campus.
