Next week Monday, Sept. 30th, one of Europe’s largest RF/microwave/mmWave events is taking place in Paris: the European Microwave Week (EuMW) as well as the European Microwave Integrated Circuits Conference (EuMIC).

Besides technical presentations and an exhibition, this is also a good opportunity to meet Tusk IC!

Should you or a friend/colleague attend and be interested to discuss how we could innovate together in mmWave IC’s, be sure to contact us! We are always on the lookout for new projects, partnerships and up-and-coming RF/mmWave design talent to join our ranks!

After months of continuous implementation, updates and improvements, Tusk IC has received the very good news that our quality management system (QMS) has been approved for the ISO 9001:2015 standard! The QMS was introduced into the organisation for the following activities from Tusk IC:

“Design and development of microelectronic components and systems for RF/mmWave applications.”

Tusk IC wants to be a reliable partner for its stakeholders and we strive to provide the requested mmWave ASIC services in a timely, qualitative and efficient manner.

The implemented QMS will enable Tusk IC to standardize our work methods where possible and increase predictability, reproducibility and mitigate risks.

Another step towards innovation in mmWave!

On September 10, 2019, Tusk IC participated in the first China-EU Semiconductor Summit in Eindhoven, NL.

Under the rapid growth of Chinese semiconductor market and their urge to cooperate with European semiconductor companies, China brings a lot of opportunities. From the Chinese side, there will be Industrial leaders, active in the Consumer/Mobile products, IC Distributors and other Semiconductor companies present. Amongst them are Silan, Oppo, Navinfo, Horestar, PAI Microelectronics.

We pitched our mmWave IC design capabilities and received much positive feedback. We’re looking forward to continue the fruitful talks we had with both the Chinese and EU partners at the event, and strive to innovate together in mmWave!

For the second year in a row, Tusk IC is a proud Silver Sponsor of the RFIC symposium, the leading conference worldwide on RF and millimeter wave IC design!

We had a great time last year in Philadelphia, met a lot of interesting people, companies and new circuit ideas. So of course we’re going back for more.

Join us in Boston and be sure to reach out for a sit-down and discuss how we can innovate in mmWave together.

Looking back on the first year of Tusk IC! In this first year, we met amazing people, contributed to innovation in the mmWave spectrum and had plenty of new experiences. The whole Tusk Team is excited to see what the coming years will bring!

We had a blast at the IEEE Job Fair on Wednesday in Leuven! Thanks to the IEEE Student Branch for the organization, and to the students who came by our booth for the interesting discussions!

Check out the job openings on our Careers page! We are looking for (Senior) mmWave ASIC designers and students who want to do an internship, summer job or master thesis with us. Hope to see you tomorrow at the IEEE job fair in Leuven!

Wondering what a mmWave/THz IC startup looks like? Come find out at the IEEE job fair on December 5th in Leuven! #ieee #mmwave #thz #semiconductors #chips #radar #5g #startups #jobfairs

 

We visited our colleagues from Caeleste to give them an introduction into the possibilities of THz imaging in Silicon. Very fun and interactive session!

From LinkedIn:

Thanks to Wouter Steyaert, CEO at Tusk IC, for his talk “THz in Silicon” which he gave at Caeleste University last Friday. It was great to see the possibility that smart design can open at these frequencies. Keep up the good work! Maarten Tytgat

Our CBDO Maarten Tytgat explaining mmWave IC design to KU Leuven electrical engineering students at the company visit hosted by Nokia Bell Labs in Antwerp.The world needs good electrical engineers, especially IC designers, if we want to implement all the change that is promised to us. We’re doing our best to convince young and bright engineers to choose for electronics!
