Faculty and Staff
Xiahan Zhou, PhD
Research Interests
Dr. Zhou's research interests lie in the area of analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits (IC) and system design. It includes but not limited to data converters (ADC/DAC), instrumentation amplifier, sensor front-end, biosensor systems, and bioelectronics. His work emphasizes the acquisition of extremely small bio-signals using ultra-sensitive biosensors and high-accuracy interface circuits, enabling point-of-care diagnostics, disease monitoring, and other healthcare applications.
Biography
Dr. Zhou received his bachelor's degree, master's degree, and Ph.D. degree all in electrical engineering from the University of Electronics and Technology of China (UESTC), University of Southern California, (USC) and University of California - San Diego (UCSD), respectively. Prior to joining the ÐÜèAVÃâ·Ñ (USF) as an Assistant Professor, he worked as a Mixed-signal integrated circuit (MSIC) design engineer for Qualcomm, Inc., designing cutting-edge digital to analog converters (DAC) and Serdes.
