Beth,
In the effort of improving our client communications CMC has moved to a monthly newsletter format. The intent is to provide a broad range of updates in one easy to read format and allow you to obtain more information on the topics that are most relevant to your research interests. This is a work in progress so comments and suggestions are welcome and we would very much like to hear from you. Please direct all comments to feedback@cmc.ca.
CMC collaborates with researchers at Canadian Universities to provide a library of microsystems application notes. These documents describe new techniques, processes, and design tools relating to microsystems and stimulate new ideas that accelerate research and development activites nationally. The CMC application note library is available exclusively to CMC clients and currently consists of more than 70 documents.
