APPLICATION OPPORTUNITIES FOR MEMS/MST IN THE AUTOMOTIVE MARKET: THE GREAT MIGRATION FROM ELECTROMECHANICAL AND DISCRETE SOLUTIONS

摘要

This paper will describe the rational and change the e from traditional electromechanical and discrete sensor solutions to those embodying Microelectromechanicl Systems (MEMS) and Microsystem Technologies (MST) approaches. Current and future product developments in pressure sensors, accelerometers, angular displacement, and other sensors are discussed. Market figures for automotive electronics and automotive sensors from 2000-2005 are presented.
