BRIDGING THE DIGITAL AND PHYSICAL WORLDS

with efficiency and intelligence


The 2024 IEEE Symposium on VLSI Technology & Circuits will be held as an in-person event with on demand content.

Welcome to the 2024 IEEE Symposium on VLSI Technology & Circuits. We appreciate your interest in submitting a paper to the Symposium. On this page, you will find all the necessary information and forms for the preparation of your submitted paper. The accepted papers will be included in the Digest of Technical Papers as received, without opportunity for further changes.

Share information with colleagues and students!

Late News

A very limited number of late news papers will be accepted until April 1.

Authors are asked to submit late news papers announcing only very recent developments. Papers should be in the same format as a regular paper and should be submitted through the submission web site in the same way as for regular submissions. Authors of accepted papers will be notified by the middle of April.

Before Submitting Your Paper

  • Processes and Materials for CMOS Scaling and New Devices
  • Processors and SoCs
  • Sensors, Imagers, IoT, MEMS, Display Circuits
  • Wireless and RF Devices Circuits and Systems
  • Wireline and Optical Transceivers, Optical Interconnects and Processors

Paper Criteria

Papers will be considered on the basis of originality, innovation, and advancing the field. Prototype implementation and measured results will be considered favorably in the ratings.

Requirements:

  • Complete paper must occupy no more than two pages including illustrations. Submitted papers which exceed this length will not be accepted for review.
  • Each page can contain about 700 words and two illustrations (assuming each illustration is in two-column format). A page could contain as many as six illustrations if they are sized accordingly.
  • A page of figures should be Arial font and no smaller than 8 pt size.
  • When preparing the final pages, please carefully follow the instructions in the Author’s Guide.
  • Please avoid the use of special international fonts in the main body text, figures, charts, and tables in the paper submission.
  • The authors may use the first page for text and the second page for pictures.
  • You must have approval from your organization before submitting your paper to the 2024 IEEE Symposium on VLSI Technology & Circuits. The IEEE Symposium on VLSI Technology & Circuits views as an unprofessional practice the withdrawal of a paper once it has been submitted by the author, accepted by the Program Committee, and widely announced in the Advance Program. Withdrawal of a paper or failure to present a paper at the Symposium after the Advance Program is distributed jeopardizes both the Symposium’s credibility and the author’s professional reputation.

Author’s Guide & Paper Template

All submissions must follow the instructions presented in the Author’s Guide and be formatted accordingly to the Paper Template (word, pdf).

All submissions MUST be 2 pages long. Any other page length will be grounds for automatic withdrawal.
