"MEMS: World's thinnest oscillator debuts"


Touted as the world's thinnest MEMS oscillator at just 0.25 millimeters, a new device is being targeted at applications such as smart cards, ultra-thin cellphones, system-in-package modules, flash storage units and other multichip modules. SiTime Corp. (Sunnyvale, Calif.) said it unstacked two dies in its previous SiTime8002 MEMS oscillator, slimming it to one-third its previous thickness but increasing its surface area.
