Gottfried "Godi" Fischer, Ph.D. Recognized by Cambridge Who's Who for his Underwater Acoustics Collaboration with Industrial and Government Labs.


Professor of the University of Rhode Island's Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Leads the Way in Sonar Receiver and Sonar Signal Processing See DSP.  Research

KINGSTON, R.I. -- Gottfried "Godi" Fischer, Ph.D. has been recognized by Cambridge Who's Who for his expertise in mixed-signal integrated circuit A mixed-signal integrated circuit combines analog circuits with digital signal processing (DSP) circuits on a single semiconductor die. An integrated circuit that includes both analog and digital circuitry (but no DSP), like a 555 timer, is generally not considered a mixed-signal  design. Fischer, a Cambridge Who's Who 2007 Professional of the Year in Electronics and Computer Engineering, has taken the lead in government and industrial collaboration in the field of underwater acoustics.

Since embarking on his professional career in the early 1980s, Dr. Fischer's research interests have expanded from analog integrated filters to amplifiers, data converters and low power CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) Pronounced "c-moss." The most widely used integrated circuit design. It is found in almost every electronic product from handheld devices to mainframes.  circuits. As an expert of mixed-signal integrated circuit design, Dr. Fischer has actively consulted for and collaborated with industrial partners and government labs, particularly in the area of underwater acoustics (sonar receivers and sonar signal processing).

Fischer has been a professor at the University of Rhode Island History
The University was first chartered as the state's agricultural school in 1888. The site of the school was originally the Oliver Watson Farm, and the original farmhouse still lies on the campus today.
 since 1985. He has taught nearly one dozen different college courses on the undergraduate and graduate levels. The content of these courses range from solid-state devices to materials to circuit theory to electronics to analog and digital integrated circuit design. The author and co-author of approximately 100 scientific papers and journal articles, Fischer's most recent articles are "A Programmable Temperature Monitoring Device for Tagging Small Fish - A Prototype Chip Development" and "A Custom Chip Set for a Frequency-Agile High-Resolution Sonar Array."

Fischer, the holder of two U.S. patents, received his Doctor of Science Degree, his Ph.D. and his Masters Degree in Electrical Engineering from ETH Zurich. He is a member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Not to be confused with the Institution of Electrical Engineers (IEE).
