Research abstract
Irvine Sensors Corporation (ISC) proposes an approach for using 3-D stacking to combine MEMS inertial sensors, with readout and processing chips to fabricate a Micro Inertial Measurement Unit (MIMU). 3-D high density electronics packaging is impervious toshock and vibration than traditional 2-D systems. The MIMU is perfect for the advanced avionics platform, which requires seeker electronics to be of a small volume for the next generation of interceptor electronics upgrades for THAAD. The potentialmarkets for the MIMU includes commercial satellites, commercial avionics and the automobile industry.
