Application opportunities of MEMS/MST in the automotive market The Great Migration From Electromechanical and Discrete Solutions

摘要

This paper will focus on current and future automotive applications of MEMS (Microelectromechanical Systems), and MST (Microsystem Technologies). Current product development in pressure sensors, accelerometers, angular rate sensors, and other MEMS/MST devices are presented. Market figures for automotive electronics and automative sensors to 2002 are presented. The migration from electromechanical and discrete sensor solutions to those embodying MEMS/MST is addressed.
