Maurits Ortmanns received the degree of Dr.-Ing. from the University of Freiburg, Germany, in 2004. From 2004 to 2005, he worked at Sci-Worx GmbH, Hannover, Germany, in the area of mixed-signal circuits for biomedical implants. In 2006, he joined the University of Freiburg as an assistant professor. Since 2008, he is a full professor at the University of Ulm, Germany, where he is the director of the Institute of Microelectronics. He is the author of the textbook Continuous-Time Sigma-Delta A/D Conversion, Springer 2006, and the textbook Incremental Delta-Sigma ADCs, Springer-Nature 2025, the co-author of several other book chapters, and over 350 IEEE journal articles and conference papers. He holds many patents. He has served as a program committee member of ISSCC, ESSCIRC, DATE, and ECCTD, as ISSCC EU regional chair, and ISSCC analog subcommittee chair. He has served as an Associate Editor for IEEE TCAS and IEEE JSSC, and as a Distinguished Lecturer for SSCS. He was the TPC chair of ESSERC 2025. His research interests include mixed-signal integrated circuit design with special emphasis on data converters and biomedical applications.
