Alessandro Chini (A.C.) è nato a Rovereto (TN) nel 1975. Si è laureato in Ingegneria Elettronica nel 1999 presso l'Università di Padova ed ha conseguito il titolo di Dottore di Ricerca in Ingegneria Elettronica e delle Telecomunicazioni nel Febbraio 2003 sempre presso l'Università di Padova. A.C. ha svolto il proprio Dottorato di Ricerca in collaborazione con l'Università della California - Santa Barbara presso la quale ha lavorato dal 2002 al 2004 in qualità di Assistant Research Engineer occupandosi della fabbricazione ed ottimizzazione di dispositivi HEMT in Nitruro di Gallio per applicazioni di potenza a radio-frequenza.
Nel 2003 risulta vincitore di un concorso per Ricercatore Universitario, settore disciplinare ING/INF01-Elettronica bandito dalla Facoltà di Ingegneria dell'Università degli Studi di Modena e Reggio Emilia, presso la quale presta servizio dal Gennaio 2004.
Dall'ottobre 2015 è Professore Associato presso il Dipartimento di Ingegneria "Enzo Ferrari".
