Dr.Kenneth W. Martin, IEEE-F , Kenneth W. Martin received the B.A.Sc., M.A.Sc., and Ph.d. Degrees from the University of Toronto, Canada, in 1975, 1977, and 1980, respectively. From 1977 to 1978, he was a member of the Scientific Research Staff at Bell Northern Research, Ottawa, Canada, where he did some of the early research in integrated, switched-capacitor networks. Between 1980 and 1992, he was consecutively an Assistant, Associate, and Full Professor at the University of California at Los Angeles. In 1992, he accepted the endowed Stanley Ho Professorship in Microelectronics at the University of Toronto. He has also been a consultant to many high-technology companies including Xerox, Hughes Aircraft, Intel, Brooktree, Pairgain, Fairchild, and Level One, in the areas of high-speed analog and digital integrated circuit design.
He has ongoing research programs in the areas of integrated circuits and systems. Recently most of his research has focused on data-communication systems, both wired and wireless encompassing transistor-level design to system-level design.He has co-authored a textbook entitled Analog Integrated Circuit Design (Wiley, 1997) in addition to three other books co-authored in cooperation with former Ph.D. Students. His newest book, Digital Integrated Circuit Design (Oxford, 2000), was released in Oct., 1999. He has published over 100 papers and 5 patents.
Dr. Martin was appointed as the Circuits and Systems IEEE Press Representative (1985-1986). He was selected by the Circuits and Systems Society for the Outstanding Young Engineer Award that was presented at the IEEE Centennial Keys to the Future Program in 1984. He was elected by the Circuits and Systems Society members to their administrative committee (ADCOM 1985-1987) and as a member of the Circuits and Systems BOG (1995-1997). He served as an Associate Editor of the Transactions on Circuits and Systems from 1985 to 1987 and as an Associate Editor of IEEE Proceedings (1995-1997) and has served on the technical committee for many International Symposia on Circuits and Systems and on the Analog Program Committee of the Int'l. Solid-State Circuits Committee. He was awarded a National Science Foundation Presidential Young Investigator Award (1985-1990). He was a co-recipient of the Beatrice Winner Award at the 1993 ISSCC and a co-recipient of the 1999 IEEE Darlington Best-Paper Award for the Transactions on the Circuits and Systems. He was also awarded the 1999 CAS Golden Jubilee Medal of the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society.
In 1991 Dr.Kenneth W. Martin was conferred as a Fellow of the IEEE for contributions to the theory, design, and application of MOS and GaAs integrated circuits
