Chenming Calvin Hu (

electronic engineer who specializes in microelectronics. He is TSMC Distinguished Professor Emeritus in the electronic engineering and computer science department of the University of California, Berkeley, in the United States. In 2009, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers described him as a “microelectronics visionary … whose seminal work on metal-oxide semiconductor MOS reliability and device modeling has had enormous impact on the continued scaling of electronic devices”.[1]

Education and career

Hu completed his bachelor's degree at the National Taiwan University in Taipei in 1968, and completed master's and doctoral degrees at the University of California, Berkeley in 1970 and 1973, respectively.[1]

Currently Professor Emeritus, he has been a professor of electrical engineering and computer science at the University of California, Berkeley since 1976.[2]

He has made significant contributions in microelectronics research. He was one of the developers of the

semi-conductors.[3]

Hu was elected a member of the National Academy of Engineering in 1997 for contributions to the modeling integration-circuit devices and to the reliability and performance of VLSI systems.

Between 2001 and 2004 Hu was the

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company. He has sat on the board of several companies, including Inphi Corporation, FormFactor, MoSys and SanDisk; he was chairman of the board of Celestry Design Solutions, which he founded.[2]
