Dr. Yang Zhao  President & CEO, Memsic, Inc. Before founding MEMSIC, Dr. Zhao had been a key member in Analog Devices, MEMS division for seven years. Dr. Zhao has a Ph.D. in EE from Princeton (under Prof. Daniel Tsui who won the 1998 Nobel Prize in physics) plus two Master degrees in both Physics and EE. He holds 9 US patents in IC circuit, processing, packaging and MEMS technologies. About Memsic, Inc. The leading provider of CMOS-based MEMS accelerometers/sensors. MEMSIC, Inc. designs, manufactures and markets CMOS Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) IC products that have on-chip mixed signal processing. MEMSIC is the first and the only company that integrates a MEMS inertial sensor with mixed signal processing circuitry onto a single chip using a standard CMOS IC process. This combination of technology has successfully yielded products at substantially lower cost and higher system performance and functionality than competitive products in the market for sophisticated accelerometers. In addition, this technological approach allows the Company to easily integrate additional functions, or create new sensors, using a standard CMOS IC process to expand into other MEMS application areas beyond accelerometers. The Company's accelerometers, sometimes called inertial sensors are used to measure tilt or inclination, shock or vibration, or inertial acceleration. Any application that requires the control or measurement of motion is a potential application for accelerometers.The performance vs. price point that MEMSIC's accelerometers can achieve is opening up new applications that until now were not practical (e.g. cell phones and PDAs).
