SMIC Announces Successful Qualification of a MEMS Chip for Microstaq
Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation ("SMIC") and Microstaq, developer of the world's most advanced silicon MEMS-based fluid control technology, announced the successful function qualification of Microstaq's unique Ventilum(TM) MEMS-based chip.
In second quarter of 2008, SMIC started to offer MEMS foundry service. Now SMIC has the capability for all major MEMS process flows and related modules. SMIC has since working closely with customers on MEMS products including Optical MEMS, microphone, accelerometer, RF MEMS, microdisplay, etc.
Microstaq's new Ventilum chip technology is the industry's latest advancement in state of the art electronic valves. Not only does the Ventilum valve use less energy than traditional valves, but when integrated with advanced sensing and controls, Ventilum technology reduces energy consumption in air conditioning systems by up to 25 percent. |
