Brain-machine interfaces hold promise for restoring basic functions such as movement or speech for severely disabled patients, as well as for controlling neuroprosthetic devices for amputees. One of the major challenges of clinically viable neuroprostheses ...
Design techniques for three-dimensional (3-D) ICs considerably lag the significant strides achieved in 3-D manufacturing technologies. Advanced design methodologies for 2-D circuits are not sufficient to manage the added complexity caused by the third dime ...

To improve health, to help to manage chronical disease and to provide equal access to healthcare, continuous monitoring of physiological parameter associated to telemedicine is mandatory. In this perspective Body Sensor Networks concept has emerged. It inc ...
The quantity of MEMS manufacturers has considerably been increasing these last years. This doesn't mean that the introduction of such products on the market has become easier. A packaging operation is needed to obtain a usable product out of a microsystem. ...
This article describes the design and fabrication of a hermetic LTCC package for an optical MEMS chip designed for space applications. The package must ensure electrical and optical connections, mechanical positioning, atmosphere control, and finally low t ...
