MEDICS provides turnkey solutions for small businesses, global players and governmental institutions in the innovation field of micro & nano technologies for biomedical applications. We are specialised in active implants, medical ASICs, biomedical sensors and telemetry systems.

Development of biomedical microdevices

Given the high specificity of biomedical applications, the need for customised microdevices is high. The MEDICS consortium has proven a perfect structure for developing components or complete systems for your purposes.

Biocompatible packaging & interconnection solutions

The packaging & interconnection of different microcomponents is a key issue in the development and manufacturing of biomedical microdevices. The required biocompatibility of all materials to be used adds to the complexity of the task. MEDICS has acquired a broad experience in the field so as to develop an entirely new and innovative way of interconnection: the MFI technology.

• Different interconnection solutions (bonding, glueing, etc.).
• Microflex Interconnection Technology (MFI). MFI is a patented technology ready to be licensed.
• Encapsulation of flexible devices such as electrode systems with medical-grade silicones.
• Medical-grade encapsulations of rigid devices such as microelectronic processors with titanium and epoxy enclosures.
• Coating with parylene.
• Sterilisation.
