'''Silicon Microstructures, Inc.''' (SMI) is a producer of and supplier of [[pressure sensorssensor]]s and [[microstructuresmicrostructure]]s located in Milpitas, CA.

Silicon Microstructures, Inc. was founded in 1991 as a commercial source of high-performance [[silicon [[pressure sensorssensor]]s, including [[MEMS]] sensors, and [[accelerometers]]. Its first product was a [[silicon sensor]] for very low-pressure usage.

In April 2001, a SMI became a subsidiary of Elmos Semiconductor AG. After the Merger, SMI began production on higher performance, system level sensors and microstructures, wireless, RF and bus addressable microstructures.
