With great pleasure, we invite you to participate in the 2026 IEEE BiCMOS and Compound Semiconductor Integrated Circuits and Technology Symposium (BCICTS). The ninth edition of this premier in-person symposium will be held Sunday, October 11 through Wednesday, October 14, 2026, at The Westin Copley Place in Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
BCICTS provides an outstanding opportunity for the engineering and technical community to reconnect professionally and personally, meet new colleagues, renew longstanding relationships, and stay informed on the latest developments and trends across microelectronics.
This year, BCICTS continues its long tradition of bringing together distinguished experts to present their latest results in bipolar, Si/SiGe BiCMOS, and compound semiconductor circuits, devices, and technologies. There are few venues worldwide where attendees can experience leading-edge advances in bipolar and BiCMOS devices and technology, 5G/6G ICs, GaN HPAs, InP THz PAs, optical CMOS/SiGe transceivers, GaN HEMT power devices, modeling and simulation, and device physics, all within a single technical program.
BCICTS features presentations from worldwide contributors covering all aspects of semiconductor technologies. Topics span process technology, device innovations, TCAD and compact modeling, IC design and testing, high-volume manufacturing, and system-level applications. The symposium will also showcase the latest results in RF, microwave, millimeter-wave, THz, analog and mixed-signal, and optoelectronic integrated circuits.
Expand Your Expertise with the BCICTS Courses
A highlight of this year’s symposium is the opportunity to participate in one of two exceptional educational offerings on October 11:
- The BCICTS Short Course, taught by leading industry and academic experts, is designed for experienced professionals seeking a comprehensive understanding of the latest technology trends, challenges, and innovations shaping the industry.
- The BCICTS Primer Course provides an accessible introduction to key concepts and technologies, making it an ideal starting point for engineers, students, and professionals entering the field or expanding into new technical areas.
Whether you are looking to deepen your expertise through the advanced Short Course or build a strong foundation through the Primer Course, these programs offer valuable learning opportunities and are excellent additions to your symposium experience. We encourage attendees to register early and take advantage of these unique educational sessions. Additional details are available on the BCICTS website.
In addition, BCICTS 2026 will host two industry panels on Monday, followed by our popular Exhibition Reception, providing further opportunities for technical discussion, networking, and collaboration.
We would like to thank the many dedicated volunteers on the BCICTS Technical Program Committee, as well as the generous support of the IEEE Electron Devices Society, IEEE Microwave Theory and Technology Society, and IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society.
We look forward to welcoming you to Boston and engaging with participants from around the world as we continue the tradition of technical excellence that defines BCICTS.
