MEMS World Summit – Shanghai

Join Amkor Technology at the upcoming MEMS World Summit in Shanghai, China at the Grand Kempinski Hotel on November 17-18, 2020.

Chiung Lee, Deputy Director – Strategic Marketing, Amkor Technology Taiwan, will be presenting “Extending the MEMS and Sensor Platform to New Optical Sensors for Emerging Applications” on Wednesday, November 18 from 1:50-2:10 PM.

Abstract

The standardization of package platforms for consumer MEMS and Sensor has evolved quickly over the past several years. Amkor is extending available solutions from Motions and Environmental Sensors to 3D and Image Sensors. As technology advances and emerging applications like sensing and mapping the “Real World”, Human Interface and Authentication become more critical to society, we will increasingly rely on developments in optical sensors to enhance reliable and fast sensing applications for the future.

Optical sensors convert various wavelengths into electrical signals for enhanced sensing applications. Ambient, infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) light are some wave types that optical sensors measure to create applications for autonomous cars, in-display fingerprint scanners, secure facial recognition, and many others. The combination of multiple sensors and light sources is crucial to creating a reliable and cohesive sensing system. The adoption of many optical sensors is growing as we rely more on technology to sense the outside world for us.
