Robert Dutton (engineer)

Robert W. Dutton is an American electrical engineer. He is the Robert and Barbara Kleist Professor of Electrical Engineering in the School of Engineering at Stanford University in Palo Alto, California. Dutton serves as the undergraduate advisor for Stanford University Department of Electrical Engineering.

Dutton's research interests include the process of integrated circuits fabrication, and circuit and device design and technology.[1][2]

Education

Dutton attended University of California, Berkeley for his BS (1966), MS (1967), and PhD (1970).[1][3]

Dutton came to Stanford in 1971.[1]

Career

Dutton's research combined fabricating requirements with material sensitivities. His team developed software to characterize the various permutations. The software resulting from Dutton's research; SUPREM, (Stanford University Process Engineering Models) and PISCES (Poisson and Continuity Equation Solver), were adopted by industry.[4]

He founded Technology Modeling Associates (TMA), the first Technology CAD company.[4] TMA was bought by Avant! Corp in 1997.[5][6] TMA's President and CEO was Roy Jewell.
