Ph.D. studies

During 2014–2019, I did my Ph.D. at Luleå University of Technology. The goal of my project was to “improve the reliability in energy production plants”. My way to approach that goal was to design integrated circuit temperature sensors for monitoring of power transistors in order to predict when devices are about to fail. This way, failing devices can be replaced before they cause any damage or production outages.

During my Ph.D., I was working on low-power, high-temperature operation of silicon temperature sensor chips and wireless energy transfer to such chips which have tiny coils on them. This essentially means that I do research on integrated circuit design, semiconductor physics and on electromagnetics.

Master's thesis

Back in 2013 I did my master's thesis at Luleå University of Technology in collaboration with Svenska Kullagerfabriken AB. It is about how brain-like computing (read more about the algorithm that was used here) can be realized with an FPGA and be used in the field of condition monitoring of bearings.
