Dr. Ankur Gupta obtained his Ph.D. from IIT Bombay in 2015 under the guidance of Prof. Maryam Shojaei Baghini and Prof. V. Ramgopal Rao. His doctoral thesis was titled "High Voltage DeMOS Device Design for Integrated RF Power Amplifier Applications". He worked as an I/O circuit designer at Texas Instruments Inc., where he was responsible for architecture definition of the I/O, implementation by circuit design at schematic level and characterization. He was a visiting research scholar at Intel Inc., Germany where he worked on RF power amplifier design. He also worked at GlobalFoundries Singapore where he worked as Data Analyst for RF-CMOS fabrication process integration.
