Today we take for granted the mobile devices in our pockets that provide the computing performance of yesterday’s supercomputers. For the past two decades, Dan Dobberpuhl has been at the forefront of low-power, high-performance computing technology. Technology that Dan developed made its way directly into Apple’s iPhone and iPad and more broadly into all of today’s mobile electronics.
A short list of his notable awards includes the 2003 IEEE Solid State Circuits Award; membership in the National Academy of Engineering; the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Illinois’ Distinguished Alumni Award; and the College of Engineering at Illinois’ Distinguished Alumni Award.
