NECINA Semiconductor SIG Seminar
Time: Thu. Apr 17, 6:30pm – 8:30pm
Location: Memsic Inc.
1 Tech Dr, Suite 325, Andover MA 01810
Topic: Overview: MEMS Technology and Industrial Trend
Speaker: Gary O'Brien, VP of Engineering, MemsIC
Gary O'Brien has served as our Vice President of Engineering since
July 2007. Mr. O'Brien has 14 years of experience in the design and
development of multiple accelerometer and pressure sensors. Mr.
O'Brien joined Motorola's Sensor Products Division in Tempe, Arizona,
as a mixed signal circuit design engineer in 1993. From 1993 through
2005, he designed and developed multiple pressure, acceleration and
angular rate (gyroscope) sensor systems for Motorola and its recent
spin-off company, Freescale Semiconductor. From 2005 until 2007, Mr.
O'Brien was an assistant professor at Arizona State University. He
currently holds nine issued patents in the MEMS area, in addition to
having previously generated multiple automotive accelerometer and
pressure sensor/ASIC designs. Mr. O'Brien received a B.S. degree in
electrical engineering with honors from the Florida Institute of
Technology in Melbourne, FL, in 1988. He received an M.S. degree in
electrical engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology,
Atlanta in 1993, and a Ph.D. in electrical engineering from the
University of Michigan, Ann Arbor in 2004.
About MEMSIC (NASDAQ: MEMS)
Headquartered in Andover, Massachusetts, MEMSIC, Inc. provides
advanced semiconductor sensor and system solutions based on integrated
micro electromechanical systems, or MEMS, technology and mixed signal
circuit design. Its accelerometer products are used to measure tilt,
shock, vibration and acceleration, and have a wide range of
applications such as mobile phones, automotive safety systems and
video projectors. MEMSIC combines proprietary thermal-based MEMS
technology and advanced analog mixed signal processing circuitry
design into a single chip using a standard complementary metal-oxide
semiconductor, or CMOS, process.
After successful IPO in 2007, Memsic is well positioned to expand its
business beyond thermal accelerometer. We are aggressively seeking
technologies, IPs, innovative individuals and acquisition targets for
further growth. Memsic will be interested in collaboration with
Chinese semiconductor professionals on any good proposals/business
ideas. "Bring in your ideas, and we can help!"
