The whole Tusk IC team wishes you happy holidays and a prosperous 2023!
Instead of a greeting card, we present you a 100GHz Christmas Tree on-chip passive implemented in MISO, our internal mmWave design toolkit. The performance of the Christmas tree is… not that great, so we’ll stick to transmission lines and XFMRs for now 😉
Happy holidays and a prosperous 2023 from the whole Tusk IC team!!
For those who missed the in-person edition of RFIC and IMS in Denver, CO this year: you can see the photos using the link below. Our own Wouter Steyaert participated in the RFIC Student Forum Entrepreneurship Panel together with Arun Natarajan, R. Bogdan Staszewski and Patrick Chiang.
Tusk IC will attend this year’s RFIC and IMS conference in Denver, Colorado, where Wouter Steyaert will participate in a panel discussion at the RFIC Student Entrepreneur Forum (hosted by prof. Vadim Issakov).
Be sure to reach out if you’re also attending RFIC/IMS and want to discuss mmWave silicon design!
Wondering what a mmWave/THz IC startup looks like? Come find out at the IEEE job fair on April 21st in Leuven! We have open positions for analog, RF and mmWave designers.
Time flies: 1500 days ago (Jan. 11, 2018) we started Tusk IC. In those 4 years, we were able to add amazing people to our team, work on beyond-state-of-the-art Silicon designs and push forward innovation in the mmWave spectrum. All while going through a pandemic and unseen turbulence in the semiconductor sector.
This wouldn’t have been possible without the perseverance of the team, the support of your partners and the trust of our clients. A very big thank you to you all!
The Tusk Team is growing and we’re all very excited to keep on surfing the mmWaves in the coming years!
On Wednesday 16/02/2022, Tusk IC invites you to their Company Day aimed at students interested in RF/mmWave IC design. Tusk IC is a fabless silicon design house, focused on high-frequency mmWave chip design for 5G, Satcom, Radar, Autonomous driving and future 6G applications.
Good luck with your exams and hope to see you all in February!
Nederlands: Op woensdag 16/02/2022 zal Tusk IC haar Opendeurdag houden voor studenten met interesse in RF en mmWave IC design. Tusk IC is een design house gespecialiseerd in het ontwerpen van hoog-frequente mmWave chips for 5G, Satcom, radar, Autonomous driving en de toekomstige 6G toepassingen.
While we are used to doing the technical work remotely at Tusk IC, nothing compares to an in-person (Covid-proof!) team event.
After a lot of precautions (and sometimes waiting until the last minute for receiving delayed test results), the team went bowling in mid-November. The location was the aptly named Bowling Stones in Antwerpen, and we had the whole place to ourselves!
In the end, we discovered some hidden bowling gems in our team. On the other hand, some players started to doubt if they we left-handed, right-handed or ambidextrous based on their scores 😀
As is tradition, the evening was closed in one our favorite restaurants near the Tusk office in Antwerpen.
With the ever-changing Covid situation and the holiday season coming up, its difficult to find a new date for the next team event. Luckily we have the Santa Claus gift bag to bridge the gap until 2022 😉
Another year, another successful audit of the ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System (QMS) at Tusk IC.
Tusk IC aims to continuously improve and to be a reliable partner for its stakeholders by providing mmWave ASIC solutions in a timely, qualitative and efficient manner.
The ISO 9001 framework helps us in doing this and supports our continued growth as a provider of mmWave innovation!
Last week, Yicun Guo successfully completed his RF/mmWave summer internship at Tusk IC.
Yicun is a master student Electronics and Chip Design (ECD) at the University of Leuven (Belgium), starting his final master year soon. His thesis on 5G mmWave Power Amplifiers will be done under the supervision of prof. Patrick Reynaert and Valdrin Qunaj.
Thanks Yicun for making our company’s first internship experience such a nice one, and the wonderful closing dinner. We wish you the best of luck with your master thesis research!
