T-CPMT Podcast: A Chat with Rao Tummala & Madhavan Swaminathan | IEEETV
New podcasts will be released quarterly highlighting papers selected by the SAEs.
The EPS congratulates Madhavan Swaminathan, recipient of the 2024 Rao Tummala Electronics Packaging Award, "for contributions to semiconductor packaging and system integration technologies that improve the performance, efficiency, and capabilities of electronic systems."
Over his illustrious career, Madhavan Swaminathan has consistently taken a lead role in offering solutions for engineers to effectively create high-performing designs. His work has led to a fundamental understanding of power distribution networks (PDNs), design of package architectures that improve power efficiencies, and glass packaging for millimeter wave (mm wave) applications. These efforts laid the foundation for several commercially available modeling tools, along with delivering significant performance improvements for high-speed computing, wireless, and mixed signal electronic systems. Swaminathan literally wrote the book on modern PDNs, as the book he authored on the subject is now used by universities and industry worldwide.
An IEEE Fellow, Swaminathan is Department Head of Electrical Engineering, William E. Leonhard Endowed Chair, and Director of CHIMES (an SRC JUMP 2.0 Center), College of Engineering, Penn State University, Pennsylvania, USA
The Rao Tummala Electronics Packaging Award, an IEEE Technical Field Award, sponsored by the EPS and administered by the IEEE Awards Board, is the highest award honoring technical achievement in EPS fields of interest.
The EPS congratulates the latest EPS Members on receiving the IEEE Certificate of Achievement from the IEEE Electronics Packaging Society and completing the required number of professional development hours:
Henry Antony Martin - Chip Integration Technology Center (CITC) and Delft University of Technology (TUD)
Patrick Thompson - Texas Instruments
The EPS proudly congratulates the recently elevated Senior Members and Fellows:

Co-Chair, IEEE Quantum Initiative Member,
IEEE Future Directions Committee
After a 4-year stint, the IEEE Quantum Initiative (QI) will “graduate” at the end of this year. Launched in 2019 by the IEEE Future Directions Committee (FDC), QI has served as the leading community for all projects on quantum technologies (https://quantum.ieee.org/). QI addresses the quantum landscape, identifies challenges and opportunities, leverages the existing initiatives on the FDC, and engages the quantum community at large. QI met its strategic goals of growing the global technical community in quantum and demonstrating the sustainability of this interdisciplinary technical community, and in the process, has become FDC’s most visible and successful initiative.
