Combining CMOS IC And MEMS Design For IoT Edge Devices
By Nicolas Williams - 07 Sep, 2017 - Comments: 0

Creating a sensor-based IoT edge device is challenging, due to the multiple design domains involved. But, creating an edge device that combines the electronics using the traditional CMOS IC flow and a MEMS sensor on the same silicon die can seem impossible. For many years, Tanner has provided customers the ability to interweave MEMS design into this flow, supporting a top-down MEMS IC fl... » read more
