Barcelona, Tuesday 18 June 2013
Session 2: “Emerging MEMS Devices”
1:15 PM – Emerging MEMS Devices – Program will be completed soon
Emerging consumer applications are boosting the growth of the MEMS pressure sensor market and reshuffling the main players
Christophe Fitamant, Sales & Marketing Director, Yole Développement
Pressure sensors are playing an important role today in modern industries. MEMS pressure sensor are one of the very first MEMS components appearing in the microsystem world and are already widely adopted in different applications for their high-performance, low costs and small sizes. Yole Developpement provides a global overview of the current MEMS pressure sensor technologies, market and competitive landscape for automotive, industrial, medical, consumer and high end applications
After years of limited growth, the MEMS pressure sensor market is growing again due to consumer electronic applications. For smartphones and tablets, it starts following the model of accelerometers and gyroscopes, resulting in significant growth.
Christophe Fitamant joined Yole Développement in 2013 to lead Média and Sales activities.
He holds an engineering degree of INP Grenoble - Phelma - with a major in Chemical Process Engineering. He started his career at IBM Corbeil-Essonnes as process engineer before leading the Atmel Fab 7 Rousset start-up for Applied Materials. He’s lived in California when he managed the Applied etch product support group for Taiwan and Japan. Back to France for Lam Research he first took the responsibility of the ST Crolles site, before moving to Business Operations, followed by Business Management, Business Development and ultimately Sales Account Management for Europe. With the acquisition of SEZ in Austria by Lam in 2008, he led Sales and Marketing for Lam penetration in MEMS and Advanced Packaging for Clean.
