Descrizione Today all the talk in the semiconductor industry is about Industry 4.0 and the IoT. More and more parts used in the daily life are becoming “smarter” by the integration of microcontrollers combined with sensors which are the eyes of these new systems and the topic of this work. The field of MEMS (micro-electromechanical systems allows these sensors to become widespread due to low cost integration in silicon CMOS architecture. This internship offers you a chance to work jointly with the TI Kilby Labs and Waferfab, and external parties on a cutting-edge R&D MEMS sensor project, which enables you to practice your out-of-the-box thinking skills and to get out of the comfort zone of your studies.
This is a cumulative internship and thesis offer within our Kilby team. Among the tasks is to gather and analyze characteristics of a novel fluid sensor on package level. You will also characterize and improve existing evaluation modules. These sensors will later be put to use in several applications such as medical diagnostics and environmental measurements.
In your task of bench level test of electrochemical sensors (Characterization Engineer) you will:
* Define and execute test routines and stress-tests for sensor in package
* Characterize packaged electrochemical sensors
* Validate sensor evaluation modules and design new sensor PCBs and modules
* Document and present the methods and works done
There is a broad field of opportunities in this interdisciplinary project, and you also have the chance to decide what interests you, and autonomously drive to improve.
Conoscenze richieste Good knowledge of MOSFET-based analog design techniques
