About the USECHIP Chair

The USECHIP Chair is a strategic project of the University of Seville, which was created with three basic objectives: 

1. The consolidation of a University-Business axis in the area of ​​microelectronics. 

2. The creation of a training, research, and transfer ecosystem through collaboration with companies that supports the requirements of these and other entities in the productive sector in the area of ​​microelectronics. 

3. To put the extensive R&D&I experience in microelectronics at the University of Seville, as well as at its joint center with the CSIC, the Seville Microelectronics Institute, at the service of PERTE Chip. 

With a budget of 5 million euros, coming from the PERTE Chip grant as well as private contributions, it brings together a total of five leading companies in the microelectronics sector: Teledyne Anafocus (monolithic image sensing and processing), Alter Technology (component technology), OnTech (EM field sensing and applications), KD (optical communications) and WoodSwallow (embedded systems for IoT), and a total of 69 researchers from 7 research groups at the University of Seville , from the Faculty of Physics, the Higher Technical School of Engineering, the Higher Technical School of Computer Engineering, the Higher Polytechnic School and the Institute of Microelectronics of Seville (IMSE).
