Cost-Driven Design of Smart Microsystems

Michael Niedermayer, Fraunhofer Institute for Reliability and Microintegration

Plus get a FREE copy of Microfabrication for Microfluidics when you order before 12/31/2011.

  • Presents methods for cost optimization of smart microsystems to help you select highly cost-efficient implementation variants
  • Offers detailed coverage of key topics such as methods for cost estimation, holistic design optimization, a methodology for a cost-driven design, and applied cost optimization.
  • Focuses on fundamental cost influences rather than absolute numbers.
  • Makes specific recommendations on which cost-reduction methods will be most advantageous in varying situations.
RF Engineering

Passive RF Component Technology: Materials, Techniques, and Applications

Guoan Wang, IBM Semiconductor Research and Development Center and Bo Pan, Realtek Semiconductor Corporation

  • Provides comprehensive details on LCP, metal materials, ferrite materials, nano materials, high aspect ratio enabled materials, green materials for RFID, and silicon micromachining techniques.
  • Offers expert guidance on how to apply these materials and techniques to design a wide range of cutting-edge RF passive components, from MEMS switch based tunable passives and 3D passives, to metamaterial-based passives and on-chip passives.

AUTHOR INSIGHTS

David Vogel, author of the book, Medical Device Software Verification, Validation, and Compliance, discuss the motivation behind his title.

There is a tendency for many in the medical device industry to be driven by regulatory concerns and checklists when validating software. Many have a “test only” perception of validation for the final days or weeks of a development project. Corporate management is perplexed with the costs of validation, and disturbed when defects are only discovered once the product is released. Many ask why validation seems to slow down product development, at great cost, yet allows defects to reach the customer or patient. It doesn’t have to be this way. Read More
