About
The IEEE International Symposium on Integrated Circuits and Systems (ISICAS 2026) is a leading global forum for presenting and discussing the latest advances in the theory, design, and applications of integrated circuits and systems.
While Saudi Arabia remains a safe and welcoming venue for ISICAS, the conference will be held at Politecnico di Torino in Torino, Italy to best accommodate conference attendees.
The program will feature keynote lectures, technical sessions showcasing pioneering research, and live demonstrations of cutting-edge technologies.
ISICAS 2026 offers a unique opportunity to connect, collaborate, and contribute to the future of integrated circuits and systems.
Accepted papers will be published in Special Issues of:
IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems I: Regular Papers (TCAS-I)
IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems II: Express Briefs (TCAS-II)
IEEE Transactions on Very Large Scale Integration Systems (TVLSI)
IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Circuits and Systems (TBioCAS)
IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Artificial Intelligence (TCAS-AI)
IEEE Open Journal of Circuits and Systems (OJCAS)
Submissions
Requirements
Paper submissions are due 11 May 2026 (for TCAS-I, TBioCAS, TCAS-AI, TVLSI) or 1 June 2026 (for TCAS-II. OJCAS)
Prospective authors are invited to submit full-length papers with a complete description of their integrated circuits and systems implementations and collected measurement results.
All accepted papers will be published in Special Issues of TCAS-I, TCAS-II, TVLSI, TBioCAS, TCAS-AI, and OJCAS shortly after presentation at ISICAS 2026.
In addition to the IEEE ISICAS special section requirements for: TCAS-I • TCAS-II • OJCAS • TVLSI • TCAS-AI • TBioCAS
Submissions should meet the following criteria:
Analog and mixed signal, nonlinear, communications, power, and biomedical circuits must include on-chip implementation and measured silicon results.
Digital circuits and systems and VLSI must include at least FPGA verification.
Extended versions of recently published conference papers with significant additional materials are also welcomed.
To ensure consistency in evaluation, only submissions meeting these requirements will be considered for review.
Paper Preparation and Submission
All submitted manuscripts must conform to the formatting and page limit requirements set by TCAS-I, TCAS-II, TVLSI, TBioCAS, TCAS-AI, and OJCAS.
Authors of accepted manuscripts will be invited to present their work (oral or poster) at the conference.
Manuscripts must follow the standard single-spaced, double-column IEEE Transactions format, as specified at the following link: http://ieeeauthorcenter.ieee.org/create-your-ieee-article/use-authoring-tools-and-ieee-article-templates/ieee-article-templates/templates-for-transactions/
Detailed Instructions for Papers Submission
