Nicolas CONSTANTINIDIS
Nicolas has over 29 years of experience in semiconductor RF IC design and architecture. In 2009 he co-founded Beelinx a world-leading provider of patent-pending innovative Radio-Frequency technologies for consumer applications. Founded by three experts in wireless communication systems, strengthened in 2010 by two veterans in international finance and international intellectual property law, Beelinx aims at revolutionizing consumer products with innovative patent-pending Radio-Frequency technologies.
In 2002, he co-founded AliasIC, a design house specialized in RF IC design, which was acquired by Silicon Laboratories in 2004. At Silicon Labs, he helped establishing a design center that developed a state-of-the-art 802.15.4 transceiver SoC.
Prior to co-founding AliasIC, he was a Principal Engineer within ParthusCeva, a provider of silicon IP. Previously he held a senior engineering position at NXP (formerly Philips Semiconductors), and designed satellite TV front-end receivers and HDD motor controllers. He also did research and development at Valéo Electronics in infra-red door-locking and motor control technologies.
He graduated from ESIEE in Paris with a MSc degree in microelectronics and he hold an MSc in fundamental physics from Paris XI – Orsay. He has co-authored eleven international patents in IC architectures and design.
Specialties: LNA, Mixer, RF SoC, Analog and Mixed-signal, CMOS design and layout, Ultra Low power design, Architectures.
