  • COLOCATING SIGNAL PROCESSING DEVICE WITH MICROMECHANICAL SCANNING SILICON MIRROR
    Publication number: 20190293926
    Abstract: Various technologies described herein pertain to collocating a signal processing device with a micromechanical scanning silicon mirror as part of an apparatus. The micromechanical scanning silicon mirror and the signal processing device are part of separate dies. According to various embodiments, the apparatus can include wire bonds directly between sensor contacts of the micromechanical scanning silicon mirror and the signal processing device; the signal processing device can be mounted on a printed circuit board or mounted on or adjacent to the micromechanical scanning silicon mirror. Pursuant to other embodiments, the signal processing device can be mounted on the micromechanical scanning silicon mirror (e.g., mounted on a foot) and electrically coupled to sensor contacts of the micromechanical scanning silicon mirror (e.g.
