RF MEMS Switch Technology
Commercial Applications Solid state and electromagnetic relay switches are being replaced by MEMS switches due to their lower costs and increased application performance. Some of the benefits of MEMS switches include low power consumption, long life cycle, linearity and increased switching speeds. Applications include highspeed digital channel switching in automated test equipment, filter bank ...
متن کاملRF MEMS DPDT Switch
The paper explores the modelling and simulation of a Radio Frequency Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems (RF MEMS) switch with the use of a novel seesaw design providing Double-Pole Double-Throw (DPDT) functionality. This optimises the capabilities of the seesaw design structure for use in mobile communications systems and devices. After researching other available seesaw designs, it was realised ...
متن کاملDesign and Simulation of Novel RF MEMS Cantilever Switch with Low Actuation Voltage
In this paper a novel RF MEMS cantilever type switch with low actuation voltage is presented. The cantilever beam of switch is supported by two L-shaped springs to reduce the spring constant. The switch is simulated using Intellisuite software. The actuation voltage of switch is achieved about 2 volt and the size of the switch is 110×60μm, that in compared with other electrostatic cantilever be...
متن کاملDesign and simulation of a RF MEMS shunt capacitive switch with low actuation voltage, low loss and high isolation
According to contact type, RF MEMS switches are generally classified into two categories: Capacitive switches and Metal-to-Metal ones. The capacitive switches are capable to tolerate a higher frequency range and more power than M-to-M switches. This paper presents a cantilever shunt capacitive RF MEMS switch with characteristics such as low trigger voltage, high capacitive ratio, short switchin...
متن کاملRF MEMS Switches and Switch Matrices
RF-MEMS technology has the potential of replacing many of the mechanical and semiconductor switches used in mobile and satellite communication systems. In many cases, such RF-MEMS switches would not only reduce substantially the size and power consumption, but also promise superior performance. The paper reviews the recent development of RF MEMS switches and switch matrices. Several configurati...
