2. From design to manufacture
Unlike microelectronics, there is as yet no library of standard designs to assemble for the various functions involved in building a microsystem. And yet, these objects are often complex, requiring multi-disciplinary skills depending on the application.
We'll look at the main stages involved in designing a microsystem, and then describe a modeling and simulation methodology. Before that, we'll say a few words about what differentiates the design of a microsystem from that of a conventional system.
The design of a microsystem often starts with the idea of miniaturizing an existing conventional system. But the final miniaturized object bears little resemblance to its macroscopic counterpart, for three main reasons:
