iNEMI MEMS Workshop Announced for Sept.
BRIGHTON, ENGLAND – The International Electronics Manufacturing Initiative, with support from MEMS Industry Group, is planning a MEMS workshop here immediately following the European Microelectronics and Packaging Conference, Sept. 15-16.
The workshop will discuss the challenges of developing and adopting MEMS technologies, plus set priorities and direction for future industry-led collaborative programs.
“MEMS devices are experiencing exponential growth,” said Bill Bader, CEO of iNEMI. “Their uses are quickly expanding from the traditional applications of relays, accelerometers and specialized sensors to a broadening array of applications in fluidics, RF components, medical and a growing number of automotive applications. Despite this growth, however, there are still several technology challenges to be addressed, everything from the need for new packaging technologies, to improved test and simulation capabilities, to a better understanding of the basic failure mechanisms.”
