Etymology
MEMS comes from the first letters of micro-, electro-, mechanical, and systems, where micro- means 'small' (as in microphone), electro- is about 'electric' things, and mechanical means 'moving parts' (as in machine). So MEMS as an adjective describes very small devices or parts that mix tiny machines and electrical components.
