The DAC/ISSCC Student Design Contest is intended "to promote excellence in the design of electronic systems by providing competition between graduate and undergraduate students at universities and colleges." The contest is jointly sponsored by the DAC, the ISSCC, and various corporate sponsors.

The Bumblebee design will be featured at the ISSCC in San Francisco in February, and again at an awards ceremony at the Design Automation Conference in Anaheim in June.

We are very proud of the Bumblebee team!
