Mirrorcle Technologies and Kaynes Semicon Enter into Technology Transfer Agreement to Establish MEMS Mirror Manufacturing in India
Kaynes Semicon India Limited and Mirrorcle Technologies, Inc., a California-based world leader in MEMS technology, have entered into a Technology Transfer Agreement (TTA) to establish advanced manufacturing capabilities for packaged MEMS mirrors in India.
Under the agreement, Kaynes Semicon will set up dedicated assembly, testing, and qualification lines at its Sanand, Gujarat facility for initial MEMS mirror package types including Mirrorcle’s hermetic TO-based packages and standard connectorized LCC-based packages. The collaboration is aimed at enabling efficient contract manufacturing in India while supporting the development of next-generation MEMS-based products and solutions for global markets.
The agreement also covers the transfer of specific know-how, technical documentation, training, process support, and engineering assistance from Mirrorcle to Kaynes. This will help build local capabilities in high-precision MEMS assembly, testing, and qualification, while laying the foundation for future product development and broader application expansion.
The partnership is expected to support applications across a range of high-growth sectors, including Free Space Optical Communications (FSOC), biomedical imaging and surgery tools, LiDAR, AR/VR, automotive sensing, displays and lighting applications, industrial automation and sensing systems, next-generation telecom and data center technologies, and consumer electronics.
As part of Phase 1 of the project, Mirrorcle will provide technology transfer support for initial MEMS mirror products, training for Kaynes personnel, assistance in equipment selection and setup, pilot batch oversight, and qualification support. Kaynes, in turn, will establish the required infrastructure, allocate trained personnel, and build the manufacturing environment necessary to scale production in India.
This agreement marks a significant step in strengthening India’s semiconductor and advanced packaging ecosystem by expanding domestic capabilities in MEMS-based optical systems and enhancing the country’s position in the global value chain for emerging semiconductor technologies.
Strategic Significance of the Agreement
· Strengthening India’s MEMS and OSAT ecosystem through localized assembly, testing, and qualification capabilities
· Diversifying global supply chains by creating an additional manufacturing base for advanced MEMS mirror products
· Accelerating commercialization of next-generation applications in telecom, sensing, imaging, and mobility
· Enabling future collaboration in product development, market expansion, and application-specific innovation
The agreement also reflects a shared commitment by both organizations to collaborate on manufacturing excellence, market development, and future technology evolution in MEMS-based systems.
