Soumya Bose is an assistant professor in Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at University of California, Santa Cruz. His research focuses on analog & mixed-signal integrated circuit (IC) design for sensing, signal processing, power management and data communication. He is specifically interested in developing ultra-low-power intelligent systems for biological and environmental sensing.
Dr. Bose has a wide experience of chip design in leading semiconductor companies. From 2013 to 2015, he worked on high-speed integrated circuits at Rambus where his work led to the invention of an adaptive data receiver for a multi-modal PHY. In 2018, he was with Texas Instruments as a research intern in Kilby Labs, where he contributed to the development of an industry leading nano-power LDO. From 2019 to 2024 he was with Intel Corporation where he was a research scientist at Intel Labs and worked on multiple areas like power delivery, photonic interconnects, and chiplet interfaces. In 2025 he started his research group, BRICS at UC Santa Cruz.
His research work has been published in premier IEEE circuits conferences and journals and has awarded him several patents. He received the 2017 CDADIC best poster award, 2014 IEEE TechSym best presentation award, and the 2024 Intel Labs DRA award. Dr. Bose served as an Associate Editor for the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems II: Express Briefs from 2021-2023 and is a reviewer for multiple IEEE journals and conferences.
