Baoqi Zhu

Summer Research Student @ Columbia Engineering

About

Graduate student in Electrical Engineering at Columbia University (M.S., expected Dec 2025), with a B.Eng. from McMaster University (Distinction). Focused on analog/mixed-signal design, power converters, and multi-domain integration. Led a full TSMC 65nm tape out of a 4-stacked output DC-DC converter (94% peak efficiency). During summer research under Prof. Mingoo Seok, developed a level shifter for stacked voltage domains communication. Additional hands-on work includes SAR ADC, OTA, and anti-aliasing filter design, plus a hardware internship focused on PCB development and testing. Skilled in Cadence, Innovus, Verilog, MATLAB, and low-voltage analog design. Passionate about efficient power delivery and pushing IC designs from concept to silicon.
