Re: [TCML] too bad Tesla could not a member of IEEE



In what must have been a bittersweet ceremony, Tesla received the highest honor that could be bestowed - the Edison Medal - from the American Institute of Electrical Engineers (AIEE) in 1928. The AIEE and Institute or Radio Engineers (IRE) merged to form the IEEE in 1963. Oh, the irony...

Credited for transforming the power semiconductor industry, IGBT
inventor B. Jayant Baliga was recently honored with the 2014 IEEE
Medal
of Honor. Baliga combined the physics of bipolar and metal-oxide
semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) technologies to
create a
device far superior to both, resulting in lighter and more
efficient
power converters.
