Abstract
In this chapter a practical application of the methodology at the Institute of Electron Technology (ITE) (http://www.ite.waw.pl, 2013 [10]) is presented. The ITE is a major Polish R&D center in the field of semiconductor electronics and physics with a focus on development of innovative micro- and nano-technologies and systems, and their applications in microelectronics, optoelectronics, photonics, and micro/nano-systems. For technology qualification it is equipped with a MEMS/CMOS pilot production line. The real case scenario presented in this chapter is a special test scenario based on a former customer requested project and has mainly been executed within the EU project CORONA. As such, it does not follow usual ITE development procedures, but an adapted set of a specific combination of the product development method Stage-Gate® and the project management method PRINCE2® described in this book. Besides that, it is exemplary for most customer-driven development projects at ITE. The reuse of a former customer project experiences and technologies allows the direct comparison of the new CORONA-based methodology and the usual applied procedures during the product engineering process at ITE. The scenario on the basis of gathered experiences presented in this chapter reveals as a promising, novel approach for product engineering, especially in the context of MNT. Because of several licensing issues and NDA constraints some specific details of the design flow have to stay unmentioned but the main impact of the methodology should become visible.
