This book describes techniques that can reduce mechanical-stress-induced inaccuracy and long-term instability in chips. The authors also show that the piezojunction effect can be applied for new types of mechanical-sensor structures. Thermo-mechanical stress is induced when packaged chips cool down to the temperature of application.
