Coventor showcases MEMS design advances at IEEE MEMS 2012

Coventor had its latest MEMS design solutions on display at the recent IEEE MEMS 2012 conference in Paris. The annual gathering of MEMS experts attracted more than 700 attendees from around the world, who came to see and hear about important developments in MEMS design and implementation. Of particular interest among attendees were design, simulation and analysis tools, electro-mechanical integration techniques, assembly and packaging approaches, and fabrication technologies.

Coventor presents at MEMS 2012

Coventor was well-positioned with demonstrations of its newest products, including the just released CoventorWare 2012, which brings even greater levels of productivity and efficiency to the MEMS modeling, design and analysis process. Also of interest was the MEMS+ solution, which targets developers looking to integrate MEMS with traditional IC and system level design methodologies, using tight links to popular design environments from Cadence and The MathWorks.

MEMS Design Tool Continues To Evolve

By David Maliniak
Electronic Design

Driven largely by the consumer market, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) are proliferating like wildfire in electronic systems. Nintendo’s Wii game platform has brought millions of them literally into the hands of consumers, and so has Apple’s iPhone, of which coming iterations will contain multiple MEMS devices.

STIMESI Training Course – May, 15 – 18, 2012 – Trento, Italy

Coventor will participate in an upcoming STIMESI Training course in Trento, Italy.  On day three of this four day course participants will learn how to use Coventor’s MEMS+® product design platform to construct a model of a MUMPs device using a library of behavioral model building blocks. Attendees will learn how to simulate the performance of the device together with system electronics. The course will also teach on how to use Coventor’s DESIGNER® to build and mesh a solid model from 2D layout and MUMPS process information and simulate this model in CoventorWare ANALYZER® using one of our Finite Element Analysis tools.

May, 15 – 18, 2012: MEMSCAP: MUMPs® (Multi-User MEMS) processes: Fondazione Bruno Kessler – FBK, Trento, Italy.
