ITRS MEMS • MEMS Device Technologies • Accelerometers • Gyroscopes • Microphones • RF MEMS • Emerging MEMS • Technology Requirements • Device Performance • Design and Simulation • Packaging and Integration • Device Testing
MEMS Inertial Sensors • MEMS Inertial Sensors continue to incrementally increase in performance and lower in cost. • The integration of functionalities (tri axis accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer, and pressure sensor) towards the IMU has advanced to 9 DOF in the package. • Driving down the cost of testing of the IMU continues to be a challenge.

MEMS Microphones • MEMS microphones are expected to incrementally increase in performance and lower in cost. • As the sensitivity of microphones advances to 68 db, testing in the factory environment is an issue. • Advances in the ASIC include digital output and adaptive signal processing (such as noise cancellation). • Testing of MEMS Microphones with adaptive signal processing is a challenge.
RF MEMS • RF MEMS are intended to lower the power dissipation of the radio. • RF MEMS are sill in the process of increasing their reliability and lowering cost before they can be adopted in mobile devices. • RF MEMS are expected to increase in performance and reliability. • The biggest challenge in RF MEMS is enhancing reliability and lifetime (# of operations) • Some of the future performance metrics have no known solutions, (e.g., signal isolation requirements)

ITRS and iNEMI • The MEMS Technology Working Group is also affiliated with iNEMI. • The iNEMI MEMS will be expanded to include consumer health applications: the "Worried Well." • TWG discussions include the concept of integration node. • An iNEMI project on MEMS Testing Requirements is in discussion. The focus will likely be on defining performance metrics in data sheets.

Conclusions • Opportunities for industrial collaboration exist around issues at the back end (packaging and test) • MEMS Sensor Fusion creates challenges for testing in increasing complexity while still lowering cost. • MEMS Testing requirements depend on the application (consumer electronics, automotive, medical, defense and aerospace). • Our road mapping has so far been on near term (5 years). The concept of integration node might facilitate longer term road mapping of MEMS and other More than Moore Technologies.
