Y. Shanti Pavan, born on the first day of June 1973, did his graduate studies in electronics and communication engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras from where he earned a BTech in 1995 and moved to the US to pursue his higher studies. Joining Columbia University, he secured a master's degree in 1997 and followed it up with a PhD in 1999.[6] His postdoctoral studies were at Texas Instruments at their Warren centre and in 2000, he started his career at Big Bear Networks, Sunnyvale.[7] Returning to India in 2002, he joined his alma mater, IIT Madras, as a member of faculty and serves as a professor at the department of electrical engineering.[8]
During his postdoctoral studies, Pavan worked on high speed analog filters and data converters and shifted his focus to microwave ICs for data communication while working in Sunnyvale.[7] Later, he concentrated on analog mixed signal VLSI circuits and has since developed many designs of core components of electronic systems.[2] He has documented his researches by way of several articles;[9] a number of online repositories of scientific articles, have listed many of them.[10][11] He holds two patents viz. Low distortion filters[12] and Method and apparatus for low power continuous time delta sigma modulation[13] and has developed a series of video lectures.[14][15] He has also been associated with IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems journal, serving as a member of the editorial board of Part II - Express Briefs during 2006–07 and as the Deputy Editor-in-chief and Editor-in-chief of Part I - Regular Papers for the terms 2012–13 and 2014–15 respectively.[7]
Pavan received the Young Engineer Award of the Indian National Academy of Engineering in 2006;[16] INAE would honor him again in 2011 with an elected fellowship.[6] He was selected for the Swarnajayanthi Fellowship of the Department of Science and Technology for the year 2008–09 and this fellowship assisted him in pursuing his researches on gold nanowires.[17] In 2009, one of his articles earned him the Darlington Best Paper Award of the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society,[18] the same year as he received the Young Faculty Recognition Award of IIT Madras.[19] Technomentor Award of India Electronics and Semiconductor Association reached him in 2010[20] and the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research awarded him the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize, one of the highest Indian science awards in 2012.[21] IEEE Solid State Circuits Society honored him again in 2016 with the Distinguished Lecturer-ship[22] and he received one more honor from IIT Madras in the form of Mid-career Research and Development Award in 2016.[23] He was elected as IEEE fellow in 2018 for his contributions to Delta-Sigma Modulators and analog filters.[24][25] He was also a member of the 2019 Fellow Evaluation Committee for the elevation of the 2020 Class of Fellows via the IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society.[26]
