SHS-Facility An intelligent system for building automation SHS system node. Photograph: R. Peukert, IMMS. 42 Housing has been changing radically over a period of years. Empty buildings due to demographic change, a new legal framework and also the availability of new technology have forced landlords and real estate administrators into a rethink. The challenge now for the housing industry, with its typical investment period of many decades, is to achieve the sort of flat or apartment that can be individually tuned, is suitable to every…
„Wir prüfen mit unseren Lecksuchmolchen die Dichtheit von Pipelines bei laufendem Betrieb. Das IMMS hat uns im Rahmen der Entwicklung und Weiterentwicklung unserer Technologie hervorragend unterstützt und ist für uns ein zuverlässiger Partner, auf den wir auch in Zukunft gern zurückgreifen.“
„Als einziges Thüringer Forschungsinstitut für Mikroelektronik-Anwendungen spielt das IMMS für mittelständische Unternehmen wie dem unseren eine zentrale Rolle als regionaler Technologiepartner und als Koordinator von öffentlich geförderten industriellen Verbundforschungsvorhaben.“
„Das IMMS unterstützt unsere „More-than-Moore“-Roadmap bereits seit Jahren als wichtigster Forschungspartner und hat sein Know-how in der ASIC-Designmethodik souverän mit der Mikromechanik zusammengeführt.“
„Das IMMS hat uns mit seinen langjährigen Erfahrungen mit energieautarken Systemen und mit der integrierten Hard/Software-Entwicklung perfekt ergänzt und für uns eine batteriebetriebene Strommesszange entwickelt. Wir sind mit dem Produkt sehr zufrieden, das in Serie gefertigt unser Angebot erweitern wird.“

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…

4TPixel – ASIC Development for Radiography IMMS developed a readout circuit for a novel pixel cell and provides low-noise high-quality recordings for X-ray photographs. Photograph: Objectives 48 IMMS. To improve both diagnostics and treatment options for patients, further development has been taking place for many decades in such imaging methods as radiography, computer tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). CMOS image sensors (CIS) have long been established in medical technology. They are semi-conductor structures which…

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…
