This presentation will cover the latest design of SwiftMote-Electrochemical, a wireless potentiostat.
We plan on covering its position in the FABrIC program, what SwiftMote-Electrochemical v2 is, how you can make use of it, and most importantly, we are interested in obtaining your feedback – does the system have the features you need? Would you like it manufactured? What direction would you like to take the program in? Are there other systems you are interested in FABrIC developing to support your research?

Event Details
The design and development of MEMS devices hinge on three critical verticals: Multiphysics, Microfabrication, and System Integration. Seamless integration and effective communication between these verticals are essential for optimizing the design process and achieving successful product realization. These tools not only address the demands of emerging markets but also expand into diverse applications, including optics and photonics, in addition to silicon-based solutions.
In this webinar, we will explore how IntelliSuite facilitates each of these verticals and enhances the transitions between them, adding significant value to the design optimization process. The software empowers users to streamline and simulate fabrication processes before implementation, ensuring that designs are both manufacturable and high performing. By integrating fabrication models with Multiphysics FEM simulations, IntelliSuite enables the creation of devices optimized for both process feasibility and performance outcomes. Moreover, through reduced-order model simulation, IntelliSuite links seamlessly with circuit EDA tools, allowing system designers to precisely develop control and sensing circuits. Its open architecture further extends support to the design of non-silicon-based sensors and actuators, such as those using quartz, InP, GaAs, AlGaAs, metals/alloys, and sapphire. It also accommodates advanced process simulations, including angled ion beam etching (IBE), 3D lithography, 3D oxidation, and high-index substrate wet etching for materials like silicon and quartz.
Join us to learn how IntelliSuite bridges the gap between design and manufacturing, driving innovation in MEMS development beyond traditional boundaries.
