Governance SSCS AdCom

About the SSCS AdCom

The Administrative Committee (AdCom) is the governing body of the Solid-State Circuits Society. AdCom members oversee conferences, publications, educational projects, chapters, finances and other activities relevant to the Society’s scope.

Elected AdCom members serve three-year terms, which are staggered so there are always some experienced and some new members. Candidates may be nominated by a Petition Process .

The AdCom meets at least twice a year and is governed by the IEEE SSCS Constitution and Bylaws. The next meeting is tentatively scheduled for September 6, 2026, at the IEEE European Solid-State Electronics Research Conference (ESSERC) in Palma de Mallorca, Spain.
