Thai Microelectronics Center (TMEC) is a research unit under National Electronics and Computer Technology Center (NECTEC). TMEC core technology is the silicon process technology focusing on silicon sensor and electronic device research and development. TMEC comprises 3 research teams of different key activities as follows:

  1. Silicon Industrial Fabrication Research Team (SIFRT) with their key roles in research and development in Micro Electro Mechanical System (MEMS), Chemical and bio-sensor platform based on Ion Sensitive Field Effect Transistor (ISFET) Technology, and wafer level sensor prototyping and small volume production
  2. Design, Simulation, Characterization, and Circuit Design Research Team (DSCRT) basically sustains the product and innovation through research and development with the aid of simulation and characterization of new sensors and electronic devices. DSCRT also supports wafer level and chip level testing services and facilities to the other teams.
  3. Surface and Microfluidic Device Innovation Research Team (SMD-1RT) pushes forward TMEC prototypes into commercial products by collaborating with all sectors locally and internationally. The present targets are automated medical screening system with Lab on Disc and Large area Super-hydrophobic film for medical and undersea applications.
