Phase I

Contract Number: ----------
Start Date: ----    Completed: ----
Phase I year
2006
Phase I Amount
$119,992
Many standard packaging methods pose problems for high-g MEMS. Wirebonds can fail or drift electrically under high shock conditions. Wafer-level approaches may lack required strength, and impose undesirably high temperatures. The proposed project will assess failure modes for high-g MEMS devices and results will be presented in a database.

Phase II

Contract Number: ----------
Start Date: ----    Completed: ----
Phase II year
2006
Phase II Amount
$680,000
The proposed SBIR Phase II project will develop MEMS inertial sensors and MEMS packaging for IMU applications. A critical requirement is compatibility of the sensor and packaging with launch conditions, typically involving shocks in the 10,000g to 20,000g range.
