MEMS Directions Ultrasonic transducers Medical v v v Italian and Japanese sensors applied to genomics and DNA/RNA Ultrasonic transducers for diagnosis and endoscopy Benelux and Japan: Intra-vascular blood sensor Canada and Benelux - blood lab on a chip with micro-needles for thumb blot. Canada: diagnosis integration of Microfluidics, MEMS and Optical devices Micro-needles Intravascular MEMS 9 Cardio. MEMS
MEMS Directions Automotive v Sensors becoming the key to the Safe-Car – Micro-accelerometers – Crash Sensors – Roll Sensors – Tyre pressure sensors – Vision Assistance etc. 10
Communications v v RF MEMS and Optical devices are the focus Australian development in relays Canada showing particular interest in RF and now X-ray MEMS Taiwan, biggest government investment of MST is in this area - US$ 200 Million Optical and Display v USA & Israel Micro-mirror arrays 11
Microfluidics v v Fuel injectors for automotive industry Blood sampling and other medical uses Microassembly v v Synchrotron Projects - for imaging at molecular level Australia spending $206 M, other projects in Canada and Germany Microfluidics will be important for this area, fine spraying seems to be the best emerging method of production for nano-materials 12
MEMS, demands One MEMS structure Needs to be be connected to and protected from the outside world Source Competence Centre for Microactuators and non-Silicon microsystems So the mirror structure material, cover and possible interconnect layer need to be diced 13
Applications, driving forces for convergence for MEMS dicing v v v v MEMS CSP WSP BGA, UBGA, FR 3 / FR 4 & copper sub-frame Silicon, Glass, Quartz, Ceramic substrates, LTCC and similar PZT integrated transducers & actuators Stainless steel, copper etc. Ga. As and SAWF materials and similar 14
MEMS Process Points 1 v v v MEMS, BGA, BGA or similar converge at WSP level Material thickness, hardness and poly-material layers Cutting energy dissipation and strength of material Sensitive surface topography and coatings. Process Temperature control Keeping cutting swarf out of mechanisms 15
MEMS Process Points 2 v v Some structures have special needs Dicing Lab on Chip has considerable demands Temporary seals for chemical / compound needed Protection of bonding pads Source: Competence Centre for Microactuators and non-Silicon microsystems 16
MEMS Outlines Packages have standard features and these outlines indicate some seen. Solutions exist for all of these although some development is usually needed to determine full process Combination with BGA coming 17
Wafer Scale Packaging v v v Practical Considerations Interconnect Bonding Moulded cover material Flatness of moulded package 18
Large Area MEMS Integration of BGA & BGA dicing techniques v v Specialist application with points to watch – Frame material – Flatness – Work holding – In line v stand alone Next generation of multi layer devices 19
MEMS Future Packages v Integration of other materials will mean that multi-layer devices could evolve from forms currently seen, for example: Fibre board with interconnect & external connection Signal processing layer Sensor layer Actuation layer 20
MEMS - the future v v v Integration of more materials into the structure, up to at least 6 layers Move to low profile wafer scale packaging with BGA concepts Issues – Grinding and surface finishing for layer bonding – Dicing a mixture of materials with diverse characteristics, design for dicing Accurate break down into process elements for process development Design for dicing! 21
