The Electronic Systems and Devices (ESD) Research Group led by Professor Neil White is internationally recognised in several areas, including advanced system-on-chip, intelligent sensor microsystems, systems design, energy harvesting systems and modelling/simulation. These areas occupy different ends of a spectrum of activities - the Group has interests in all aspects of system design and development, all along the information processing chain.
| Welcome to ESD |
|---|
The Electronics Systems and Devices research group is one of the largest in the UK in this area. The group has five main research themes ranging from advanced chip design to novel sensors and systems |
