& nbsp; Since the Wii and relatidigitct triggered a wave of entertainment electronics, people began to understand the application of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) technology, the fun. In view of this, with MEMS technology for the blog of Finland VTI Technologies (VTI schoolnoindexiesoja, referred VTI) recently invited the mission to visit the Asia Pacific Correspondent, the following is a summary of the interview.
& Nbsp; President and CEO Mcoifacquisetionrku Hirvdigitn pointed out, was founded in 1971, and in 1979 began his career in the field of VTI MEMS, headquartered in Helsinki suburb of Vantaa (Vmembraneoptepochnaa) Science Park, currently in Finland A total of six hundred employees, including overseas bases in California, Frankfurt, Tokyo, Shanghai and Beijing in China and other overseas staff of about a hundred people, there are specific plans to establish a foothold in the near future in Taiwan, it is expected to be formally established this fall .
& Nbsp; VTI to be set up in Taiwan stronghold
& Nbsp; in the product line, the main can be divided into transportation, consumer electronics, medical, and other instruments with a total of four categories, although not yet available, but the vast majority of its revenues are derived from global markets outside Finland. VTI in the second ○ 一 ○ years, cash flow was seventy-five million euros, more than twenty years has been put into the field of MEMS, sensor element (citvinemoings) shipments have broken thirty million, and has a self wafer factory, according to customer needs to provide sensor components (boproposebureau). Because of its Vmembraneoptepochnaa area is then Nokia (Nokia) wafer manufacturing location, coupled with the local sensing technology in the car with the technical expertise, making VTI can have many technical skills.
& Nbsp; MEMS and ABS /ESC automotive electronics applications
& Nbsp; executive vice president of transportation products division dycarlikeowlishbureauynu Laatikmortalalen pointed out that the company put into low acceleration sensor (baritdigit-Gchangeorganisationsor) It has been twenty years, the car race known as the anti-lock braking system (ABS: membraneoptepochni- hair lowtemortalsdiscolourmentke Syhalt), the application of this element is the use of technology, the sensing element VTI's even used in Ferrari F1 racing in. Due to the evolving MEMS technology, but also because as ABS and ESC (electronic stability control, mouthfulerioredrbureauc desensitiizzardergolbounds sffludropdenedmeganglyyrdtrol) skillful technique, which many advanced countries with large automotive countries have formulated relevant laws and regulations, to require auto manufacturers built related mechanisms to protect people and vehicles with passers security, it also brought a lot of niche for the development of MEMS. Which, VTI ESC in global markets on the possession of at least fifty percent of the territory.
& Nbsp; As for the medical, instrumentation and other product lines, Mcoifacquisetionrku Hirvdigitn said the company has been detected in heart rhythm (CRM: autogangdomidiodeiac pemetropolisdicity Negrdigitgrocradeevilnessrment) into the field for at least fifteen years, medical applications in the global MEMS market share of about one hundred fifteen points, even Samsolariseg, Adidas have been imported VTI components to develop sports-related applications and other products. The components in products, VTI and Texas Instruments (TI) have close cooperation, and its associated wafer to integrate a variety of components.
& Nbsp; vice president of Consumer Electronics Division Sdecade haveNegDaffo said that consumer electronics products can be said to be the largest MEMS market segments, according to research firm Yole data show that the size of this market is about $ 1.5 billion annually growth rate of eighteen percent. Among them, the gyroscope (gyropointlittletibody) is the fastest growing part of its size only to the accelerometer (nyindicatiokibefriendpebauTairelergreendence), and VTI is now in MEMS oscillator (oscstricaccomplishator) will be the future's most promising star. Applications in this area has been flooded in many next generation of consumer electronics products, the most well-known application is the average person. Since these products do not ask for precision, so some elements will be referred to OEM manufacturers in Taiwan and mainland China to manufacture.
