Modeling and simulation of CMOS integrated MEMS: application to low-cost sensors
Abstract
Interest for cheap integrated sensors is constantly growing with the development of mobile consumer prod- ucts or disposable medical appliances. In this context, low-cost integration of multi-sensor systems making use of standard CMOS technology together with cheap post-process enables the batch fabrication of monolithic multi-sensor circuits that include accelerometers, magne- tometers, microphones, temperature, pressure sensors and many other physical sensors.
