Microfluidics and BioMEMS analysis

We created a full 3D Navier-Stokes solver optimized for microfluidic applications from the ground up. Simultaneously, we went way beyond the existing code bases by adding support for electroki-netic phenomena, Red-Ox reactions, ac-ids, bases, ampholytes and fluid struc-ture interaction.

An optimized ElectroWetting on Dielectric (EWOD) engine allows you to quickly simulate droplet transport, merging and splitting

We then added advanced visualization algorithms to look at cross-sectional profiles, velocity vectors, streamlines and transient results.

Our code base is not only faster at solv-ing microfludics problems but is the only MEMS tool for problems from ranging from high frequency dielectrophoresis to isoelectric focusing to electro-osmotically enhanced flow.

High frequency electromagnetic analysis

The IntelliSuite electromagnetic analysis module is specifically designed to address the needs of reliable RF MEMS and micro-wave MEMS by providing fast, accurate, cost-effective solutions for high frequency electromagnetic phenomena.

The Electromagnetic module is the only fully integrated high frequency solver available for MEMS simulation. Traditional high frequency tools are designed for pla-nar or quasi-planar structures, not for 3D deformable structures common in RFMEMS. In fact, IntelliSuite is the only tool on the market that allows you to perform fully coupled Thermo-Electro-Mechanical & Fullwave ElectroMagnetic analyses. You can easily extract impedance and s-parameters as a function of the structure deformation or contact.

Our FullWave ElectroMagnetic engine over-comes some of the common problems with other engines such as inability to handle high aspect ratios, non-planar structures, and dielectric discontinuities.

Page 43: IntelliSuite 8 Brochure

Create and model complex geometries such as vias and through feeds with ease.

IntelliSuite is the only tool that allows you to perform coupled Thermo-Electro-Mechanical & Full Wave ElectroMagnetic analyses— this is particularly useful in design-ing deformable RFMEMS such as switches, tunable capacitors and varactors

System model extractor (SME)

IntelliSense introduces SME for dramati-cally reducing the computational time to perform accurate dynamic analysis of MEMS. Based upon sub-space model reduction and energy based algorithms, very large non-linear thermo-electromechanical, electrothermal, pie-zoelectric or piezoresistive FEM models can be reduced into computationally efficient behavioral models.

These behavioral models fully capture the complex non-linear dynamics inher-ent in MEMS due to electrostatic forces, electrothermal and residual stresses, squeeze film damping, and multiple mechanical de-grees of freedom.

IntelliSuite is the only tool that gives you the freedom to create arbitrary degree of freedom compact models. These n-DOF 3D models fully capture all of the har-monic modes of the MEMS enabling you to quickly develop readout or control electronics.

Page 47: IntelliSuite 8 Brochure

SME allows you to create N-DOF system models that accurately capture the dynamic response of MEMS 100-1000x faster than equivalent FEA simulations. The response of a clamped beam driven at 50 kHz (above) and at 3 MHz (left) accurately captures the beam motion.
