About the USECHIP Chair

The USECHIP Chair is a strategic project of the University of Seville, which arises 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 at the service of PERTE Chip the extensive R&D&I experience in microelectronics existing at the University of Seville, as well as at its joint center with the CSIC, the Institute of Microelectronics of Seville. 

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 of 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).
