The System-on-Chip Center (SoCC) at Khalifa University is the only center of its kind in the United Arab Emirates. The SoCC is dedicated to the design and realization of advanced electronic circuits and systems as well as sensory devices. The expertise in the center covers the various facets of electronic systems, including digital, analog and mixed-signal. The key personnel of the SoCC have extensive experience that includes working on the design and implementation of industrial cutting-edge electronic systems at leading international companies.
The SoCC has the full industry standard suite of electronic design tools to enable the realization of sophisticated electronic systems. This includes field programmable gate arrays (FPGA) as well as optimized system-on-chip implementations for application specific integrated circuits (ASIC) and full custom. The SoCC has access to various international chip manufacturing companies including Global Foundry.
The SoCC at Khalifa University attracts many students at both undergraduate and graduate levels to work on exciting projects that have applications in many fields, which is part of the center’s focus on educating students and providing them with hands-on skills in electronic circuits design. Students who work on SoCC projects will go on to become skilled graduates of value to the various industries in the UAE that require electronic circuit and hardware designers.
The faculty and researchers at SoCC are engaged in cutting-edge research aimed at providing solutions and advancing the boundaries of knowledge. This effort is well demonstrated through their publications in leading international journals, participation in conferences and patents that have been awarded.
The SoCC is built on the success of the Khalifa Semiconductor Research Center (KSRC)and the Institute Center for Microsystems (iMicro) at Masdar Institute.
The mission of the SoCC is to provide opportunities to enable a highly-skilled workforce to drive innovation and entrepreneurship in the UAE’s electronic hardware sector, in line with the UAE Centennial 2071 vision. Being the only center in UAE with a comprehensive range of expertise that can deliver integrated SoC/electronics, the SoCCaims to support local industry with hardware solutions.
The vision of the SoCC is to be a world leading system-on-chip design center with a collaborative research and development environment focusing on UAE’s industry needs.
