Where Sensor Innovation Begins

At our independent, pure-play MEMS Mikrofoundry™, we leverage decades of experience to craft high-quality MEMS sensors tailored to our customers’ needs. Our portfolio boasts a variety of ISFET pH sensors, Wheatstone half and full-bridge pressure sensors, and more. Every step of the production process, from lithography to chemical vapor deposition, diffusion, and annealing, is carefully performed in-house. Once our wafers pass testing, our skilled operators meticulously dice and pick them. Our state-of-the-art facilities include a dedicated testing factory, a fully equipped tooling shop featuring a 5-axis CNC milling machine, an electronic and PCB circuit design facility, a dynamic software development unit, and a comprehensive sensor and product assembly facility.  

Lithography

Utilizing state-of-the-art lithography techniques, we achieve precision in sensor design. This step is crucial for creating intricate patterns on silicon wafers, laying the foundation for high-performance sensors.

Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD)

With CVD, we grow thin films of materials with exceptional purity and uniformity. This process is vital for creating sensor layers with precise thickness and characteristics, ensuring optimal sensor performance.

Diffusion / Annealing Furnaces

Our diffusion and annealing furnaces optimize sensor properties such as conductivity and stability. This step ensures that sensors exhibit consistent and reliable behavior across various applications.  

Vacuum Deposition

Through vacuum deposition, we apply protective layers to sensors, enhancing their durability and resilience. This process is crucial for shielding sensors from environmental factors and ensuring long-term functionality.
