sMobiliTy An energy-optimised wireless sensor solution for traffic applications Making prototype weatherproof, reliable sensors with wireless signalling 24 Objectives that can be installed in the ”tactile road“ and will contribute to mobility Electric vehicles (EVs) have a shorter range and longer ”electrical filling up“ times than do conventional vehicles. For optimum navigation as regards trip time and distance travelled, it is important to have upto-date local information: details of traffic jams, battery charging prices and…

Smart current clamp registers parasitic currents in industry Energetic measurements for the smart current clamp. Photograph: IMMS. Objectives one single point in the plant. Yet another is that the breakdowns seem to happen sporadically, tending only to happen at intervals of perhaps several hours or even days. If expert staff apply themselves and complex measurement equipment to ongoing analysis over such long periods, the costs will be high. Expensive downtime in complex industrial plant is often attributable to…
2014 Jahresbericht | Fachartikel MEMS2015 MEMS-Design (en/de)
MEMS design at the press of a button The methodology of synthesising MEMS exemplified in an accelerometer Objectives 36 There is a need for new procedures and tools in the field of MEMS design to enable smart, up-to-date, high-performance sensor-and-actuator systems to be developed. To this end, during its involvement in the MEMS2015 research project funded by the BMBF (the German Ministry of Education and Research), IMMS has developed a new type of methodology. The tried and trusted modular principle from microelectronic…

Readout circuit for a smart force sensor MEMS The ASIC developed by IMMS is part of a compact sensor head capable of measuring surface quality at a resolution of less than 100 nanometres in Objectives the industrial setting. Photograph: IMMS. Because microsystems technology is advancing so fast, particularly in the trend towards ever larger wafer diameters, and ever smaller components, the challenges confronting process monitoring and qual ity tests for microsystems are ever greater. In the at tempt to minimise…

Semiconductor-based biochips for on-site veterinary diagnosis Test card equipped with an ASIC capable of analysing aqueous solutions applied directly to the chip. Photograph: IMMS. Objectives 50 Regular health testing of farm animals is a necessity for high-standard food supplies. Up to now, veterinary diagnosis has been possible only after several days or even weeks because it has been necessary to send off samples to a laboratory where they are prepared for and subjected to microbiological analysis. In cases where a…

EROLEDT OLED driver circuit for energy efficient lighting Instruments used in the IMMS laboratory for the characterisation of the Objectives OLED driver developed at the Institute. The ASIC, laid out specifically for the OLED panel, enables it to run efficiently and compensates for the ”Organic LEDs“, or OLEDs*, have been used for some years already in smartphones and television screens. At the moment, they are not in common use for general lighting purposes. An OLED is, however, highly efficient in its use of energy and about 60% more…
