A TOOL  DESIGNED for THE MEMS COMMUNITY 

• Due to their non-standard manufacturing process, the cost of MEMS devices can be difficult to estimate. Components such as accelerometers, pressure sensors, inkjet heads or micromirrors involve very different process steps.

• MEMS Cosim+ is a  flexible tool ready to evaluate the cost of any MEMS process or complexed packaged device, already used by manufacturers as well as end users.

• With the possibility to store steps and process flows in libraries, this new version dramatically reduces the duration of the cost evaluation.

   


MAIN FEATURES

Multiple process flows

• Any MEMS process flow can be simulated.
• Hierarchical description for multiple dies or processes.
• Simulate cost for a variety of different conditions (region, clean room class, process type, etc).
• Integrated equipment, wafer & materials databases.
• Possibility to store an unlimited number of process steps or process flows in libraries.
• Simulation of up to five simultaneous scenarios allowing the user to run sensitivity analysis and compare results like yield improvement, manufacturing location impact on cost, etc.

Multiple subcontracting operations

• Costs of usually externalized operations can be precisely  evaluated by setting their individual regional and commercial parameters.

No admin privilege is required for setup

• MEMS Cosim+ is working from a single MS-Excel™ file and an external and sharable data file.
• Requires only basic MS-Excel ™ or MS-Office™ suite (from 2003 to 2010 release)

Results are fully open-format

• You can modify or export final results, and build reports your own style as with any Excel workbook.

Workgroup-compliant, safely

• All the data managed by IC Price+ are stored in an external MS-Access™ database file. Data cannot be read from the single Excel file and access rights to the database are needed. Multiple access, data sharing and data integrity are secured.
