Since 1958, IC (CMOS) has indeed brought us a very strong way in a very short time. Later on, MEMS transducers stemmed from semiconductor and IC further allow human beings to interact with the physical world featuring miniaturization, mass production, low power, portability, and affordability. MEMS transducers (sensors and actuators) together with IC have become the key driving force to enable IoT and smart X (me, vehicle, home, manufacturing, city, etc.). As a result, integration of CMOS and
MEMS in an efficient and effective way is of utmost importance. CMOS-MEMS integration is expected to combine the potential of More-Moore (miniaturization) and More-than-Moore (diversification) towards a higher value microsystem.
In this Research Topic “Design and Analysis of CMOS-MEMS Transducers”, we sincerely invite the potential contributors to share their new research works, precious experiences, and valuable visions on this theme while the readers can be greatly benefited from the in- depth thoughts and viewpoints.
