The 45th IEEE Custom Integrated Circuits Conference (CICC) successfully took place in Boston, USA, from April 13th to 17th, 2025. Out of the 153 papers presented at the conference, the Key Laboratory of Analog Integrated Circuits stood out as the sole authoring institution, contributing five academic papers. These papers encompass a wide range of research areas, including high-speed wired data interfaces, radio frequency phase-locked loops, high-speed high-precision analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), ultra-high-speed ADCs, and high-linearity ADCs. The publication of these papers was supported by various platforms, such as the Hangzhou Research Institute, the School of Integrated Circuits at Xidian University, the Key Laboratory of Analog Integrated Circuits under the Ministry of Education, and provincial key laboratories across Zhejiang Province.
