MEMS sensor market Murata force

In 2012, Murata made its unique vision of the market, made a big purchase of Finnish VTI technology and established Murata Electronics Oy. This acquisition also became the beginning of Murata's MEMS sensor market. According to the latest research report recently, since 2012, the next few years will be an important stage for the rapid development of the automotive industry. With the orderly growth of people's attention to cars, the core competitiveness of the car itself has become cautious and intriguing. The frequent occurrence of traffic accidents has made people no longer use fuel consumption and sales prices as the sole criterion for measuring cars, and more and more consumers have turned their attention to vehicle safety and accident protection. However, at this stage, most people still have some misunderstandings about car safety awareness. They often stay in passive safety. For example, in emergencies, safety belts on cars, car airbags, etc. are passive. Safe means can prevent people from being hit hard by car accidents. Nowadays, this slightly one-sided understanding is accompanied by the introduction of new technology by Murata Manufacturing (China), especially the emphasis on the concept of “automotive active safety” put forward at the 8th Automotive Electronic Technology Forum in 2013. Gradually dissipated. The "automotive active safety" advocated by Murata Manufacturing (China) is relative to the passive safety of vehicles. Passive safety design aims to minimize the chance of occupant injury when an accident occurs, while active safety is committed to preventing it. From the familiar ABS to the latest TPMS, both the development of the technology and the development of the use, the responsibility borne by the automotive active safety field is extremely huge. For this reason, the quality and reliability of technical support have also been raised to a certain degree of key. position. Silicon-based MEMS sensors are one of the core components of ABS, TPMS, and ESC Remark 3 systems.

Murata's accumulating MEMS sensors are naturally not only unique in the field of automotive safety, but also the role of MEMS sensors in the medical field. At the 5th China International Medical Electronics Conference to be opened, Murata Manufacturing (China) will also display their new technology concept. Murata's MEMS accelerometers have always played an obscure but important role, whether in the hospital bed or implanted pacemakers. This technology not only helps people to detect the individual's heart rate, heart rate changes, blood pumping function, and respiratory rate conditions. In conjunction with Murata's wireless module, it will also provide timely and in place monitoring capabilities for clinical patient condition monitoring so that doctors can be more accurate. Understand heart rate and condition detection in heart patients. It is worth mentioning that its uA-level power consumption can support the use of equipment for 7 to 10 years, and this stable and ultimate reliability is Murata's biggest commitment to the medical field. In addition, the MEMS angle perception technology of Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. can be applied to the angle adjustment of the operating table and the delivery of medical images. Any slight deviation will directly bring the cost of the patient's life. Therefore, in terms of technology, it is necessary to consider the angle of motion compensation. , the appropriate exposure timing of the image and so on.

For a long time, Murata's sensors have also been widely used in industrial equipment with good reliability and excellent performance. They are mainly used in the measurement of independent systems to improve the safety of various types of machinery and vehicles. For example, electronic level instruments and aviation instrumentation seismic observation equipment are equipped with relevant sensors. It can be seen that Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is realizing the professionalism of a multinational corporation with its strong technical strength. This is also a reflection of its sense of responsibility for the society to the masses.

Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd., an industry leader, is constantly making more in-depth research and development for road safety and reducing medical hidden dangers. Although it is hidden inside countless electronic products, it is also hidden in the details of our lives. Few people will thumb up or flash a flashlight because of their excellent products, but “the mountain is not high and there is a fairy”. Murata's contribution is worth receiving this praise!
