Georgia Tech School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) Professor Gabriel Rincón-Mora was selected as an IEEE Circuits and Systems Society (CASS) Distinguished Lecturer for the 2026-2027 term.
It is the fourth time he has been selected, having previously served terms in 2009–2010, 2018–2019, and 2022–2023.
His talks, titled “Energizing & Powering Intelligent IoT Microsystems” and “Peak/Valley DC-DC Controllers: From the Ground Up!” will explore energy-harvesting microchips and power IC design.
He will present the talks to CASS chapters around the world.
Rincón-Mora is the Motorola Solutions Foundation Professor, a fellow of the National Academy of Inventors, the IEEE, and the Institution of Engineering and Technology, who specializes in the design and development of silicon-based microchips that derive and condition power from batteries, fuel cells, magnetically coupled coils, and transducers that harness ambient energy from motion, light, temperature, and radiation.
He was with Texas Instruments from 1994 to 2004 and started with Georgia Tech in 1999.
He’s received a number of awards and honors over the course of his career, including the 2025 Roger P. Webb Distinguished Faculty Achievement Award, being inducted into Georgia Tech's Council of Outstanding Young Engineering Alumni, named one of "The 100 Most Influential Hispanics" by Hispanic Business, and included in "List of Notable Venezuelan Americans" in science.
His body of work includes 12 books, 8 handbooks, 4 book chapters, 44 patents, over 200 articles, over 26 commercial power-chip products released to production, and over 170 keynote addresses, distinguished lectures, and research seminars.
The CASS Distinguished Lecturer Program connects its members with experts who can enhance their professional knowledge and vitality by keeping them informed of the latest research results and their practical applications.
