Our core expertise is in design and
development of MEMS devices. We use industry standard
softwares and methodologies for creating best results in
the least time possible. We offer our assistance at every
stage of product development listed below.
Conceptualization and patent search
We work with the customer to find
out what their requirements and specifications are and
develop a device concept keeping the entire product in
mind. This includes determining the basic device
structure, sensing or actuation scheme, process and
packaging requirements. We can do a patent search of the
idea.
Mathematical modeling
We can create a mathematical model for an analytical
representation of the device. This gives us a better
understanding of the device and reduces errors going
forward. MEMSolver software can create a quick model of
the device and predict its performance.
Finite element modeling and
simulation
Finite element modeling (FEM) can
provide an insight into the behavior of the device to
various design variables and operation environments.
Some of our simulation capabilities are stress analysis,
modal analysis, transient and dynamic analysis, film
stress, simulating piezoresistive effect, film damping,
package stress
etc.
Design layout and masking
Once the structural design is
finalized, drawings can be generated to visualize the
circuit and a device layout to go along with the
process. This can later be converted to a full mask
layout that fits the requirements of your foundry tools. We can stream out GDS files and send it
to mask vendor.
Process design and simulation
We can help to develop a process
that goes along with the design and matches the
capabilities of your fab. We can perform process
simulation, for example to determine dopant dose and
energy, junction depth and sheet resistance of resistors
and interconnects.
Test and data analysis
We develop test programs based on
Microsoft VB .Net framework with MS Access database support to
store the test files and test limits. Post testing data
and yield analysis can be done using these programs or
custom MS excel macros.
