Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The MicDAT' 2020 conference will be held on 21–23 October 2020 in Canary Islands (Tenerife), Spain (https://www.micdat-conference.com/). It is the third of a series of annual International Conferences on Microelectronic Devices and Technologies (MicDAT) held in Barcelona, Spain (2018) and in Amsterdam, the Netherlands (2019), organized by IFSA.
The conference is intended to create awareness of the huge potential of modern microelectronic technologies and to improve understanding on the recent challenges in a wide range of applications. The many different technological bases for the fabrication of microelectronic devices, SoC, SiP, MEMS, and NEMS will be outlined in this 3-day conference.
This Special Issue will publish both extended conference papers from MicDAT 2020 and external papers. The topics to be covered include but are not limited to:
- Analog, digital, mixed, and RF circuits and related design methodologies
- Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADC)
- Voltage-to-Frequency Converts (VFC)
- Frequency-to-Digital Converters (FDC)
- Time-to-Digital Converters (TDC)
- Semiconductor Devices: physics and technology
- Active and Passive Electronic Components
- Microprocessors, microcontrollers and DSPs
- Mixed-domain simulation and design
- Embedded systems, low-power designs
- VLSI Circuit and Systems design
- Non-von Neumann computing and related technologies and circuits
- Design and test of high complexity systems integration
- SoC, MPSoC, NoC, SIP, and NIP design and test
- Process technologies, CMOS, BJT, BiCMOS, GaAs
- 3-D integration design and analysis
- Emerging device technologies and circuits, such as FinFETs, SETs, spintronics, SFQ, MTJ, etc.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Micromachines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
