Abstract

Micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) oscillators are not only smaller than conventional oscillators, but also they can respond quicker and more accurately, because of the smaller distances in use. Moreover, producing them in large batches is inexpensive. The extension of lithography methods and development of new micromachining techniques have allowed the production of freely moving micromechanical parts.

Quartz crystals are currently used for most high performance systems, but they are not economical when used as clocks for integrated circuits (ICs) due to their separate and costly hermetic packaging requirements. With micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), vibrating mechanical devices and wafer-level vacuum packages can be manufactured with conventional semiconductor technologies. This iRAP market analysis report highlights the shift from quartz to MEMS and illustrates how designers could optimize products to save time and money

Current frequency control and timing products in the market are based on the use of resonators made of non-silicon materials, such as quartz crystal, ceramic and surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices. As ICs continue to shrink, these non-silicon resonators, unfortunately, do not follow the same Moore' s Law for miniaturization and ultimately restrict the ability to reduce the overall IC system size and cost. In comparison, MEMS oscillators made using a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) silicon process are much smaller and easier to integrate.

The idea of abandoning quartz oscillators for silicon ones is not new. Researchers at Stanford University, University of Michigan and the University of California, Berkeley have been working on the technology for decades. For the most part, however, the quality of these silicon systems has not matched that of quartz. In recent years, though, advances in the fabrication of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) have made high-quality silicon oscillators more practical.

When a quartz crystal is fabricated, it is designed to resonate at a single frequency throughout its lifetime. Changing the function of the quartz clock from one that operates a cell phone to one that runs a high-definition television, for example, requires fabricating an entirely different batch of crystals operating at different frequencies. The high levels of miniaturization achieved by MEMS technology allows a cost-effective solution of having high-Q resonators operating at different frequencies to be simultaneously fabricated within the same device “footprint.” Selection of the desired frequency is subsequently achieved using software.

Additionally, quartz crystal, ceramic and SAW devices are produced through a fairly labor intensive process, wherein each device has to be finely tuned to achieve the desired resonance frequency characteristics. The MEMS oscillator fabrication approach, on the other hand, brings about the economies-of-scale achieved by using the mass-manufacturing capabilities of modern CMOS semiconductor fabrication.

There are several companies involved in making MEMS oscillators a reality for electronics device manufacturers who have been waiting for a reliable, scalable and low-cost alternative to quartz oscillators. Exciting market possibilities exist for MEMS oscillators in new product areas such as frequency control, smart sensors, filters and hybrid solutions for commercial, military and space applications.

The MEMS solution, leverages several decades of development that have created a mature silicon integrated circuit industry. Fabrication techniques are well understood and tuned, with established ISO-certified processes resulting in highly-repeatable, high-yield manufacturing. This strong industry foundation has created an opportunity for emerging MEMS oscillator companies - mainly innovative startups such as SiTime and Discera - to gain considerable ground in creating a new market. Last but not least, MEMS technologies, by virtue of their small size are also extremely rugged and well-suited to low-jitter applications such as in military and aerospace equipment, where resistance to shock and vibration is at a premium.

REPORT SUMMARY

Frequency references and oscillators are essential components for a broad range of applications. They are central to all electronics, which is a big, fragmented market (in 2007, more than an estimated 10 billion quartz crystals and oscillators were manufactured). Frequency generators are integral components of all electronics and systems that need to communicate data.

Integrating MEMS devices on the ASIC chip is one of the attractive features of silicon MEMS resonators. There are three possible approaches to the integration of MEMS devices with Si ICs. Hybrid integration involves co-packaging of MEMS chips and SIC chips that have been separately fabricated and optimized for performance. Alternate approaches include direct fabrication of the MEMS devices on the IC chip or vice versa, direct fabrication of the CMOS integrated circuits on the MEMS device chip. By adopting a wafer-scale integrated fabrication approach, one can lower the cost of the ultimate product. Till now, the first approach has been found to be the most cost efficient.

The basic idea of using MEMS technology is to be able to microfabricate a resonator or an array of resonators and subsequently adapt the resonance frequency to the desired specification. The resonator is a fundamental building block of the MEMS oscillator. Microfabrication allows the resonator to be very small, and the manufacturing process is amenable to achieve complete integration with the IC driver circuits and linked passive elements on a single chip.

The potential for smaller footprint components and resistance to electromagnetic interference also supports new cell phone designs, for example. Moreover, MEMS oscillators meet price points set by crystal oscillators by leveraging established high-volume silicon manufacturing processes. This combination of size, performance, functionality and low cost is highly desirable for OEMs and consumers alike.

Major findings of this report

The major findings of this report are summarized as follows:

  • MEMS resonator companies will evolve to ultimately become time module companies, taking market share away from quartz crystal oscillator manufacturers and silicon timing device manufacturers. They will target applications where the size and degree of integration are key, leading to the ultimate usage of MEMS oscillators in almost all portable systems like PDAs, camcorders and MP3 players.
  • The global silicon MEMS oscillators industry is characterized by about a dozen companies and institutions involved as device developers and manufacturers.
  • The 2007 global market for MEMS oscillators is still small to the tune of $5.2 million in 2008. However, it is expected to grow at very fast pace to reach $217 million by 2013 with an average annual growth rate (AAGR) of about 111%.
  • Computers and networking will have the largest share in 2008 - as much as 60%.
  • By 2013, consumer and communications products will take over the lead, at a 55% share of the market, because of the segment' s large growth rate, as much as 125% AAGR from 2008 to 2013.

METHODOLOGY

The research methodology was qualitative in nature and employed a progressive three-phase approach, for guaranteeing the ultimate validity of the findings. Initially, a comprehensive and exhaustive search of the literature on MEMS oscillators was conducted. These secondary sources included journals and related books, trade literature, marketing literature, other product/promotional literature, annual reports, MEMS oscillators' analyst reports, and other publications. A patent search and analysis was also conducted.

In a second phase, semi-structured fact-finding email correspondence was conducted with marketing executives, product sales engineers, international sales managers, application engineers, and other personnel of the MEMS oscillators companies. Other sources included micro-electromechanical system society magazines published by organizations in the U.S. and Germany, academics, technology suppliers, technical experts, trade association officials, government officials, and consulting companies. These were a rich source of data. Subsequent analysis of the documents and interview notes was iterative.

The final step in the data gathering and validation process included techniques such as preliminary research, fill-gap research, historical analysis of end-user markets and supply chain/raw materials, data consolidation, cross linking, variance determination projections, variance factorization and confirmatory primary research.
