About

Dr. Moon received the B.S. degree in electrical engineering and computer science from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, Daejeon, South Korea, in 2005, the M.S. degree in electrical engineering from Stanford University, Stanford, CA, USA, in 2007, and the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering and computer science from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Cambridge, MA, USA, in 2016.

Dr. Moon was with Hynix Semiconductor Inc., Icheon, South Korea, from 2007 to 2011 as a Senior Research Engineer, where he was involved in designing analog, digital, and power circuits for DDR4 SDRAM. He was a postdoctoral associate at MIT from 2016 to 2017. He was with Maxim Integrated, North Chelmsford, MA, USA, from 2017 to 2018 as a Member of Technical Staff, where he was involved in high efficiency wide bandgap AC-DC converter projects.

His current research interests include modeling, design, analysis, and measurement of circuits and systems in the fields of power conversion, energy harvesting, electromagnetics, and renewable energy.

Dr. Moon received two grand prizes in the MIT Clean Energy Prize in 2014. He was also a recipient of the Kwanjeong Scholarship and the Hynix Strategic Patent Award. He holds 17 registered U.S. and international patents.
