| Course Description |
Micro Electromechanical Systems (MEMS) are physical structures with dimensions in the micron range built using layers of poly silicon and sacrificial silicon dioxide. The designs are created using leading edge technology and design tools. The student will be introduced to MEMS through the use of AutoCAD as a base with extensions to support 2D and 3D modeling, layer cross section views and a design rule verification capability similar to the tools available in the integrated circuit design world. |
|
| Rationale |
This course is intended to give students workforce skills in the CAD field.
|
|
| Instructional Methodology |
- Lectures introduce new material.
- Exercises allow the instructor to lead students through the material the first time.
- Projects provide opportunities for students to practice with the new tools on their own.
