How Semiconductors Are Enabling Consumer Medical Devices

摘要

Semiconductor research and development in the late 20th century was driven by computing and communications applications such as PCs, handsets and consumer electronics. Today, it is increasingly influenced by the demand for ICs that make possible the next generation of medical devices,rnincluding those for home use. Consumer medical products provide people with freedom and mobility to manage and treat diseases as well as support health and wellness initiatives.
