Prof. Adam (Adi) Teman
Welcome to the homepage of Prof. Adam Teman
I am a Full Professor in the Faculty of Engineering at Bar-Ilan University, where I currently serve as the Chair of Graduate Studies and Head of the Nanoelectronics Track. I also co-Direct the Emerging Nanoscaled Integrated Circuits and Systems (EnICS) Labs. My research spans the vertical engineering of integrated circuits - from device and circuit levels up to architecture - with a focus on energy-efficient VLSI, specialized memories (specifically GC-eDRAM), RISC-V implementations (including the PulpEnIX Platform and HAMSA-DI core), cryogenic CMOS, and hardware for deep learning.
Bridging the gap between theory and practice, I have led dozens of academic research tapeouts and am a co-founder and scientific advisor at RAAAM Memory Technologies. My academic work has resulted in over 135 peer-reviewed publications and 13 patents.
I am a strong proponent of open-access engineering education and am well known for my public domain VLSI and chip design courses, which are available on the EnICS Labs Education page and my YouTube channel (@AdiTeman). Additionally, I initiated the "Hardware and Chip Design Engineering" undergraduate specialization and the "IC Academy" post-degree program at BIU. My activities have been acknowledged with the Krill Prize for Excellence in Scientific Research, the BIU Rector's Prize for Scientific Innovation, and the Outstanding Lecturer Award.
