Snorre Aunet

Snorre Aunet is a Professor II in the Department of Informatics at the University of Oslo, affiliated with the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. He is a key member of the Nanoelectronics Systems Research Group and contributes to the 4DSpace project. His academic background includes a Dr. ing. from NTNU (2002) and a cand. scient. from the University of Oslo (1993).

His research focuses on ultra-low-voltage and low-power mixed-signal circuits, particularly in subthreshold operation, with applications in IoT, space systems, and energy harvesting. He specializes in radiation-hardened (radhard) and defect-tolerant architectures, leveraging advanced semiconductor technologies like 22nm and 28nm FDSOI. His work integrates circuit design, microarchitecture, and reliability under extreme conditions such as radiation exposure and process variation.

The recent trend in his publications shows a strong emphasis on energy-efficient VLSI design, including SRAM cells, adders, level shifters, and flip-flops operating in subthreshold regimes. He has also expanded into MEMS-based energy harvesting and hardware security, demonstrating a broad and evolving research portfolio. His collaborations span institutions and involve both theoretical modeling and practical implementation.
