Abstract :
We have developed the MEMS piezo pressure sensor by utilizing CMOS process modules and tool-sets to challenge faster time to market and faster time to volume with high yield. The MEMS device has the commonality of process, tools, material, and design system and qualification method with 0.35um CMOS device. The CMOS integration approach also showed the high quality as small variation of offset voltage and lower manufacturing cost compared with traditional MEMS development approach.
