Juergen Wittmann received his Dipl.-Ing.
Degree from the Technical University of
Munich, Germany, in 2006. From 2006 until
2011, he was with the Mixed-Signal Automotive
business unit of Texas Instruments, in
Freising, Germany, as an Analog Design
Engineer. In February 2011, he joined the
Robert Bosch Center for Power Electronics at
Reutlingen University as a research assistant.
He is working towards his Ph.D. degree in the area of power- and
microelectronics.
Tobias Funk received the B. Eng. from the
University of Applied Science Esslingen,
Germany in 2011. From 2011 until 2012, he is
a student at the master’s program “Power
Electronics and Microelectronic” at the Robert
Bosch Center for Power Electronics.
Bernhard Wicht received the Dipl.-Ing. Degree
from the Technical University Dresden,
Germany in 1996 and the Ph.D. degree from
the Technical University Munich, Germany,
in 2002.
From 1996 to 1998, he was with MAZ Hamburg
GmbH as a designer of analog ASICs for
optical measurement systems. In 1998, he
joined the Institute for Technical Electronics
of the Technical University Munich, Germany,
as a Research Assistant, where he was working on sense amplifiers
until 2002 in cooperation with Infineon Technologies. From
2003 until August 2010, he was with the Mixed Signal Automotive
business unit of Texas Instruments, in Freising, Germany, responsible
for the development of automotive smart power ICs. In September
2010 he became a professor for integrated circuits at Reutlingen
University, Robert Bosch Center for Power Electronics. His
research interests include IC design with focus on power management,
gate drivers, energy efficiency, low-power, ESD, EMC.
He invented 12 patents with several more patents pending. Prof.
Wicht is member of IEEE and VDE. He also serves as a member of
the Technical Program Committee of the European Solid-State
Circuits Conference (ESSCIRC).
