The board of directors of Advanced Silicon welcomes Professor Michel Declercq as its technical advisor. Professor Declercq received the Electrical Engineering degree and the PhD degree from the Catholic University of Louvain, Belgium, in 1967 and 1971, respectively. In 1973, he was awarded a Senior Fulbright Fellowship, and joined Stanford University as a Research Associate in the Microelectronics Labs. From 1974 to 1978, he was Research Associate and lecturer at the Catholic University of Louvain, Belgium. In 1978, he joined the company Tractebel in Brussels, Belgium, where he was Group Leader of the Electronic Systems team.

In 1985, Dr. Declercq joined the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL), Lausanne, Switzerland, where he is currently Professor, Dean of the School of Engineering, and Director of the Electronics Laboratory. His research activities are related to mixed analog-digital I.C. design and design methodologies. He is more particularly involved in low-power/low-voltage circuits, high-frequency circuits for telecommunications, fully-depleted-SOI technology and circuits, and high-voltage circuits for MEMS applications and others. He is author and co-author of more than 180 scientific publications and 2 books, and holds several patents. He is a Fellow of the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers).

Dr. Declercq is expert by the European Commission for the scientific research programs in Information Technologies.
