Area of Science:

  • Microfluidics
  • Bioengineering
  • Computer-Aided Design

Background:

  • Digital microfluidics biochips are increasingly complex due to multiple concurrent assays.
  • A need exists for top-down design methodologies and computer-aided design (CAD) support, similar to the semiconductor industry.
  • Integration of microfluidic biochips with microelectronics is anticipated for next-generation system-on-chip (SoC) designs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present an electrowetting-on-dielectric-based micro-electrode dot array architecture.
  • To enable a hierarchical top-down design approach for digital microfluidics.
  • To analyze and experimentally validate digital microfluidic operations on the novel architecture.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a novel micro-electrode dot array architecture using electrowetting-on-dielectric.
  • Dynamic configuration and activation of basic microfluidic units ('micro-electrode cells').
  • Hierarchical design of microfluidic components, layouts, routing, operations, and applications.

Main Results:

  • Successful performance of fundamental digital microfluidic operations.
  • Demonstration of dynamic configurations and activations of micro-electrode cells.
  • Validation of a hierarchical design path for digital microfluidics.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed micro-electrode dot array architecture supports a hierarchical top-down design approach for digital microfluidics.
  • This architecture offers advantages and flexibility over conventional digital microfluidics for advanced operations.
  • It facilitates the development of complex, multi-assay biochips with enhanced CAD support.
