Hey there! I am Maaz Khurram, a passionate Electrical Engineer with a strong interest in Analog/RF IC Design. Check out some of the projects I have been working on below! Looking back, I have spent countless late nights in the engineering labs or at home troubleshooting new projects and fine-tuning old ones. The projects below have been instrumental in my journey of technical learning and growth, and I wouldn't trade it for anything!

Much of the credit goes to the incredible professors, technicians, mentors, and colleagues who were always there when I needed help. Their willingness to share their precious time with an engineering student eager to learn made all the difference.

- Dr. Leonid Belostotski (Instructor - Analog IC + RFIC Design @ UofC)

- Dr. Denis Onen (Instructor - Digital System Design @ UofC)

- Dr. Kartikeya Murari (Instructor - Semiconductor Physics , UofC)
- Devin Atkin (Academic sponsor for Capstone project @ UofC)
- Alex Sheldon (Graduate Research Student @ UofC)
- Mohamed Balla Elamien (Academic advisor for Capstone project @ UofC)
- John Shelley (EE Lab Technologist @UofC)
- Richard Galambos (EE Lab Technologist @ UofC)
- Stefan Lund (Internship supervisor @ Garmin Canada)
- Martin Bobek (Co-worker @ Garmin Canada)
- and many more whose names I may not remember...

Projects

A 1 MS/s, 8.33-bit ENOB Low-Area CT Δ-Σ ADC for CMOS Image Sensors

An ADC for wide dynamic range high-speed digital cameras

A Low-Power 10GHz LC VCO With Digitally Assisted Tuning for High-Speed Wireline

A low phase-noise VCO designed for 10-25Gbps Serdes links with coarse digital tuning and fine analog tuning

2.4GHz RF Module

Employs Nordic's Enhanced ShockBurst protocol and communicates to an external MCU via SPI. Designed in Altium

741 Op-Amp (Discrete Transistor Version)

Op-amp designed with discrete and commonly-available 2N3904 and 2N3906 BJTs.

This PCB was later used by Department of Electrical and Software Engineering at University of Calgary as part of lab sessions for introductory Electrical Engineering course (ENGG 225) taken annually by more than 800 first-year engineering students.
