Microsystems Prototyping … lowering financial, knowledge, and capability barriers
… ‘getting to yes’ with investors and customers
Design • technical – architecture, design, techniques, tools, training, technologies, support • leading edge design tools enabling performance, quality, and time to market advantage • design kit and IP support
Make • prototyping access and results from microsystems manufacturing technologies
– microelectronics, photonics, MEMS, microfluidics, embedded SW – lowering costs through consolidation / MPW runs for multiple customers
• customized packaging solutions • supply chain expertise and advice • wide range of sourcing through CDN commercial suppliers, University, and institutional facilities • selected international suppliers for leading technologies
Test • access to leading edge equipment and facilities at CDN University and institutional labs
Lowering the Barriers – managed legal, technical, financial solutions lowering the technical, administrative overhead – direct support of prototyping activity to help drive industrial economic growth – lower direct costs through consolidation / MPW runs for multiple customers
People – Service Expertise Value Trust
