A simplified integration process including packaging is presented, which enables the realization of the portable fluorescence detection system. A fluorescence detection microchip system consisting of an integrated PIN photodiode, an organic light emitting diode (OLED) as the light source, an interference filter, and a microchannel was developed. The on-chip fluorescence detector fabricated by poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS)-based packaging had thin-film structure. A silicon-based integrated PIN photo diode combined with an optical filter removed the background noise, which was produced by an excitation source, on the same substrate. The active area of the finger-type PIN photo diode was extended to obtain a higher detection sensitivity of fluorescence. The sensitivity and the limit of detection (LOD S/N = 3) of the system were $0.198\;nA/{\mu}M$ and $10\;{\mu}M$, respectively.

This paper describes a novel microfluidic device with a microfabricated electrospray source for a sheathless electrospray ionization interface to a mass spectrometer. This electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) device consists of a triangular-shaped metal emitter, allowing the generation of an efficient electrospray for peptide detection, and microfluidic channels monolithically in a glass microchip. The performance of the proposed interface was evaluated by opimizing its experimental condition and spraying standard peptides. The spraying has high signal strength and stability, with a relative standard deviation of 2.9% and singly-charged and doubly-charged peaks of the peptides were successfully detected. The metal emitter source showed a good performance to be comparable to commercially available emitters in signal strength and stability.

This paper presents bead-based microbiocihps to detect and separate target proteins. Micro beads coated with capture proteins were introduced into a microchamber, and target proteins flowing across the chamber were bound and concentrated. The chip was connected with an external fluid system. Bead surfaces were double-coated with photo-cleavable linkers and capture proteins. The proteins bound on the beads were photo-separated under UV irradiation, and excited to be measured in fluorescence. $38{\sim}50{\mu}m$ sized polystyrene beads were used. SOGs(silicon-on-glass) were used to fabricate the microchip having glasses bonded on both sides. 100 ${\mu}m$ thick silicon channel was formed through silicon deep RIE process. The upper glass cover had holed through to have inlets and outlets fabricated by powder-blastings. In this study, biotin and streptavidin were used as capture proteins and detection proteins, respectively. The protein mixtures of streptavidin, HSA(human serum albumin) and ovalbumin were applied for selective detection test.

Most of the electronics we use today have built-in microcontrollers, which are called embedded systems. In such a small environment, responsiveness is very important for the microcontroller. In this paper, the basic input/output control, timer/counter interrupt operation principle, and understanding of the microcontroller are described. Program logic is proposed to improve throughput and latency by controlling characteristics of service routine and program execution order. The hardware simulations in this paper were verified using ATmega128 and PIC16F877A from Atmel and Microchip.

A flip-chip bonding system using IR laser with a wavelength of 1064 nm was developed and associated process parameters were analyzed using Taguchi methods. An infrared laser beam is designed to transmit through a silicon chip and used for transferring laser energy directly to micro-bumps. This process has several advantages: minimized heat affect zone, fast bonding and good reliability in the microchip bonding interface. Approximately 50 % of the irradiated energy can be directly used for bonding the solder bumps with a few seconds of bonding time. A flip-chip with 120 solder bumps was used for this experiment and the composition of the solder bump was Sn3.0Ag0.5Cu. The main processing parameters for IR laser flip-chip bonding were laser power, scanning speed, a spot size and UBM thickness. Taguchi methods were applied for optimizing these four main processing parameters. The optimized bump shape and its shear force were modeled and the experimental results were compared with them. The analysis results indicate that the bump shape and its shear force are dominantly influenced by laser power and scanning speed over a laser spot size. In addition, various effects of processing parameters for IR laser flip-chip bonding are presented and discussed.

Electrical energy is the essential resource for modern society. Recently, the demand for power was significantly increased. Increase of power demand has lead to a decrease in the power quality. Power quality in modern society has been an important factor that can cause a major problem throughout the home and general industry. Therefore, we need a system for preventing the power quality problems. To avoid power issues, it is important that the measurement of the power quality and initial response. In this paper, we propose real-time power quality measurement system and harmonics monitoring system. We design the system using DM240001 board include dsPIC33FJ256GP710A of microchip. This system can adapt three-phase three-wire system. And optimized the algorithm, we can measure momentary changes of the power system. In addition, designed system can measure harmonics distortion like to VTHD, ITHD and ITDD for 31th harmonics.

This paper describes a separable microfluidic device fabricated with PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) and glass. The device is used for sample preparation involving cell lysis and the DNA purification process. The cell lysis was performed for 2 min at $80^{\circ}C$ in a serpentine-type microreactor ($20 {\mu}l$) using a Au microheater that was integrated with a thermal microsensor on a glass substrate. The DNA that was mixed with other residual products during the cell lysis process was then filtered through a new filtration system composed of microbeads (diameter: $50 {\mu}m$) and PDMS pillars. Since the entire process (sample loading, cell lysis reaction, DNA purification, and sample extraction) was performed within 5 min in a microchip, we could reduce the sample preparation time in comparison with that for the conventional methods used in biochemistry laboratories. Finally, we verified the performance of the sample preparation chip by conducting PCR (polymerase chain reaction) analysis of the chip product.

We report a finding of fast(exceeding 2,000 K/s) heating of polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS), one of the most commonly-used microchannel materials, under cyclic loadings at high(~MHz) frequencies. A microheater was created based on the finding. The heating mechanism utilized vibration damping of sound waves, which were generated and precisely manipulated using a conventional surface acoustic wave(SAW) microfluidic system, in PDMS. The penetration depths were measured to range from $210{\mu}m$ to $1290{\mu}m$, enough to cover most microchannel heights in microfluidic systems. The energy conversion efficiency was SAW frequency-dependent and measured to be the highest at around 30 MHz. Independent actuation of each interdigital transducer(IDT) enabled independent manipulation of SAWs, permitting spatiotemporal control of temperature on the microchip. All the advantages of this microheater facilitated a two-step continuous flow polymerase chain reaction(CFPCR) to achieve the billion-fold amplification of a 134 bp DNA amplicon in less than 3 min. In addition, a technique was developed for establishing dynamic free-form temperature gradients(TGs) in PDMS as well as in gases in contact with the PDMS.
