Application of Microelectronic to bioanalysis is an emerging field which holds great promise. From the standpoint of electronic and system design, biochips imply a radical change of perspective, since new, completely different constraints emerge while other usual constraints can be relaxed. While electronic parts of the system can rely on the usual established design-flow, fluidic and packaging design, calls for a new approach which relies significantly on experiments. We hereby make some general considerations based on our experience in the development of biochips for cell analysis.
