Profile
Dr. Peruzzi's subspecialty is with integrated circuits (silicon chips) used for signal-processing:
• Detect signals from a sensor (e.g. antenna, microphone, pixel, thermocouple and so forth)
• Amplify, filter, then convert the signal to the digital domain
• Perform further processing in the digital domain
• Convert the result back to the analog domain for further processing, and/or
• Deliver the final output to an actuator (e.g. antenna, speaker, LED, heater control-switch etc.).
Examples of these systems are
• Telephones, mobile phones and cell phones
• Data recording and retrieving systems for magnetic media such as disk drives or magnetic tape
• Radio transmitters/receivers and their building blocks such as low noise amplifiers, filters, automatic gain control and frequency mixers (down-converters, up-converters)
• Audio amplifiers
• Audio recording/reproduction systems
• Heat, ventilation and air conditioning controllers
• Data transmitting/receiving systems such as serializer/de-serializers (SERDES)
Areas Served
All States
