The MEMS Cost Model revision 1103 is now available with new, fab, product, test and package options. The MEMS model is a complete MEMS costing solution and supports up to 2 MEMS die and up to 2 IC die per package and also includes packaging and test costs. The model includes many popular MEMS products as predefined products. When you select a predefined product you get fill in help for all of the model settings. The model also supports user defined products and processes.

MEMS Cost Model is designed to enable users to easily estimate manufacturing costs for most MEMS products. The cost model runs inside of Excel, the user makes selections from dropdown menus on 9 worksheets covering the MEMS product, MEMS process(es), Fab and materials, IC process(es), packaging, test and die size. For predefined products there is suggested settings for all of the selections. The user may also define their own product including defining custom MEMS processes.
