Bio:

Cian Ó Mathúna's research, on the miniaturisation and integration of magnetics onto silicon (MagIC - making magnetics disappear onto silicon), has contributed to disruptive developments in integrated power management for processors in portable and high performance computing and to the commercailisation of magnetics-on-silicon in portable computers. In 2008, he founded the International Workshop on Power Supply on Chip (PwrSoC), a flagship event for IEEE PELS and PSMA. An IEEE Fellow, he has received an IEEE PELS Technical Achievement Award for Integration and Miniaturisation of Switching Power Converters and an EARTO (European Association of Research and Technology Organisations) Impact Innovation Award.
