About ADEC

Analog Design Evolution Collaborative, ADEC, is an initiative to connect industry professionals and students. Our goal is to explore new avenues in analog IC/systems design and combine theoretical insights with practical design approaches. Also, Analog IC/systems design is often considered part ’art,’ and through collaboration, we aim to put method to this art, helping our students learn and contribute in a more structured and meaningful way.

Lastly, IIIT-Bangalore has expertise in different fields, and we also hope to collaborate with other functions and experts at IIIT, from Digital-CMOS to Embedded Systems to Machine Learning. We hope to collaborate meaningfully to contribute to the field.
