    1993 CANADIAN SEMICONDUCTOR DESIGN ASSOCIATION Award:  Chips in Action


The Canadian Semiconductor Design Association (CSDA) is  sponsoring  a  $3,000
design  award at the Canadian Microelectronics Corporation (CMC)  Workshop  in
May  1993.  Competitors for the CSDA award must  demonstrate  a  working  chip
which  has  been  designed into the CMC silicon technology base  or  has  been
designed using CMC tools.  Both faculty and students at Canadian  universities
can participate in the competition.

The CMC workshop  is  scheduled  for May 17-21, 1993 and will include  various
events on the theme of Design Standards and Conventions.  The  CHIPS  & CAD IN
ACTION  session,  which  will  include the CSDA award competition, provides an
opportunity for researchers to present the results of their latest work.  

The  CSDA  award  is   to  be  used  to  further  the  winner's  education  in
microelectronics,  preferably  in  an  area   relating  to  telecommunications
applications.  It may be applied  to  the  cost  of  attending a conference or
workshop or visiting a laboratory or other technical facility.  A brief report
will be required to describe how the award was used.

Criteria for judging will include technical and presentation  excellence.  For
more  information  on  the conditions for entry and judging  criteria,  please
contact Gail Burgess at CMC.
