MEMS + IC Systems Design Symposium
October 28, 2010
Boston, MA
From traditional automotive and military applications, the MEMS market is expanding to high volume
consumer electronics applications. The MEMS ecosystem is evolving while: fabless design houses and
pure MEMS foundries are emerging. In this changing environment MEMS+IC co‐design via System Level
Simulation and data exchange between MEMS designers is becoming highly critical.
Coventor, the leading provider of MEMS design‐automation software, is organizing a symposium to
further explore this topic. During this one‐day event, leading experts will give their vision on challenges
given by MEMS+IC and system simulation. MEMS+ allows MEMS+IC co‐design within existing widely used
simulation tools, allowing true understanding of the device and control electronics performance.
Presentations and Speakers includes:
Steve Breit PhD ( VP of Software Engineering, Coventor ) :
Introduction to Electrostatic MEMS Operating Principles
Praveen Pillai ( Applications Engineer, Analog/RF/MS Design Capture & Simulation, Cadence ) :
MEMS ‐ IC co‐optimization using Virtuoso ADE‐GXL
Alissa Fitzgerald ( Founder and Managing Member, A.M. Fitzgerald & Associates ) :
Leveraging Simulation in MEMS Development
Steve Bart ( Product Development Team Leader, Analog Devices ) :
Full Product Level Analysis on a Commercial MEMS Sensor
Matt Kamon ( Principle Technologist Software Development, Coventor ) :
Novel EDA‐compatible methodology for design of MEMS+IC
Ken Stern (Strategic Business Development, Intrinsix ) :
Risk Reduction at MEMS‐Electronic Interface
