The MEMS, sensor and semiconductor industries have long been connected by a shared infrastructure and supply chain, but there are significant differences in the manufacturing of MEMS and sensors, including the use of unconventional materials, wafer bonding, packaging, lack of standard processes, to name a few. As the MEMS and sensor industries scale in volume and usage in conjunction with semiconductor devices, it's important that both industries take a deeper look at our common challenges to identify the issues that would benefit from a collaborative approach.
The MEMS Industry Group (MIG) and SEMI are hosting a joint workshop on July 15 at SEMICON West to address these challenges. This 4 hour interactive workshop will focus on the mutual challenges facing the MEMS, sensor and semiconductor industries and how we may leverage lessons learned, standards and best practices to grow our respective industries sustainably. Attendees will be presented with output from a MEMS Industry Group (MIG)/SEMI joint survey and a summary of work that has already been done on this topic at MIG's MEMS Technical Congress, held in May 2015. Your active participation is encouraged! Discussion topics include packaging, materials, testing, and more! Bring your great ideas to the table, we look forward to seeing you there!
