Abstract
CSEM, with its combined expertise in micro-manufacturing techniques and precision mechanisms, has been a pioneer in the design and production of centimeter scale silicon parts featuring fine mechanical functions comprising flexures (FlexMEMS), opening up new opportunities for both the design and production of novel watch mechanisms. In the frame of SILOSCAPE MIPs, CSEM is focusing on the design and production of novel high-performance watch oscillators and escapements. This year, CSEM is presenting a novel escapement specifically targeted to exploit the potential and specificities of FlexMEMS-based oscillators.
