Our National Heroes

Introduction:

Haroon Ahmed is a Pakistani researcher and a scientist; he is known to be a professional in microelectronics and electrical designing engineering. He did a lot of work in his field. Asad Ali Abidi is a prominent scholar and is an individual from the National Academy of Engineering and The World Academy of Sciences. He got the IEEE Donald O. Pederson Award in Solid-State Circuits in 2008 In 2015, UC. Berkeley remembered him as a recognized graduate for his commitments to the hypothesis and practice of simple and RF circuits. In this article, we will discuss the electrical engineers and the electrical designers who did a lot of work in their field. At first, we discussed many scientists which did many inventions and discoveries. These discoveries are very useful for humans to use in daily life.
