Damla Dimlioglu

Damla Dimlioglu received the B.S. degree in Electrical & Electronics Engineering with a minor in Solid-State Physics from Middle East Technical University, Turkey, in 2012, and the M.S. degree in Electrical Engineering with a minor in Semiconductor Devices and Physics from the University of California, Davis, CA, in 2015. Her M.S. research focused on novel high-speed and low-power SAR ADC architectures based on time-to-digital conversion. She is currently pursuing her Ph.D. degree at Cornell University, NY, focusing on Out-of-Band Interference-Tolerant mmWave Receivers on CMOS, SiGe, and GaN technologies for high-data-rate wireless communications and sensing. In 2023, she demonstrated the first GaN N-path passive mixer ever reported to date in a mixer-first downconverter prototype and presented it to the Director of NIST, who oversees the CHIPS Act under the U.S. Secretary of Commerce. Before joining Cornell in 2020, she was an R&D mmWave IC design intern at Next Generation Radio Integration Lab at Intel Labs, OR, working on Nonlinear Distortions in mmWave Phased Array Transceivers. She worked on tunable PLLs at Analog Devices, CA (2015), high-speed optical modulator drivers at Bell Laboratories, NJ (2016), and the bandwidth extension techniques for the broadband amplifiers at Intel Labs, OR (2017).

Damla is a reviewer for the IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits (JSSC), IEEE Solid-State Circuits Letters (SSC-L), IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems-I (TCAS-I), IEEE Journal of Microwaves (JMW), IEEE Microwave Magazine, and IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques (T-MTT). She has been an editor for the IEEE Microwave Magazine since 2025, and she serves as an TE on the Editorial Board of the IEEE Journal of Microwaves (JMW) for the technical tracks Microwave and mm-wave Integrated Circuits & RF/Mixed-Signal Integrated Circuits and Signal Processing.

She has been a member of the MTT-S TC-14 Microwave and Millimeter-Wave Integrated Circuits Committee and the IEEE International Microwave Symposium Technical Program Review Committee (IMS TPRC) since 2021. She also served on the 2023 IEEE IMS Early Career Paper Competition Review Committee. Since 2025, she has served on the technical review committees of the European Microwave Integrated Circuits (EuMIC), European Microwave Circuits (EuMC), and IEEE Space, Aerospace and Defense (IEEE SPACE), IEEE Microwaves, Antennas, and Propagation (IEEE MAPCON), and IEEE BiCMOS and Compound Semiconductor Integrated Circuits and Technology Symposium (IEEE BCICTS) conferences.

Damla is the recipient of the 2024 IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society Rising Stars Award.
