Ultra low actuation voltage RF MEMS switch
In this brief a new low actuation voltage RF MEMS switch is presented which can be integrated and controlled with available CMOS technologies. Despite the advantages in the design of RF MEMS switches designing a low actuation voltage RF MEMS switch is still a challenging task. To overcome this problem, a small size RF MEMS switch utilizing a moving plate with multiple holes supported by a low s...
متن کاملPiezoelectric versus electrostatic actuation for a capacitive RF-MEMS switch
-In this paper, piezoelectric actuation is compared with electrostatic actuation for application in RF-MEMS switches with respect to actuation voltage and technological implementation. The expression for the actuation voltages of electrostatic and piezoelectric actuation are discussed and compared with respect to scaling. Calculation examples show actuation voltages for a cantilever beam of 1μm...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Low Actuation Voltage Rf Mems Switch
This paper reports on the design of a novel ultra low actuation voltage, low loss radio frequency micro-electro-mechanical system (RF MEMS) capacitive shunt switch. The concept of the switch relies on a mechanically unconstrained armature actuated over a coplanar waveguide using electrostatic forces. The minimum actuation voltage of the switch is <2V, with an isolation of 40dB and insertion los...
متن کاملBi-stable RF MEMS switch with low actuation voltage
Mobile technologies have relied on RF switches for a long time. Though the basic function of the switch has remained the same, the way they have been made has changed in the recent past. In the past few years work has been done to use MEMS technologies in designing and fabricating an RF switch that would in many ways replace the electronic and mechanical switches that have been used for so long...
متن کاملDesign of Low Actuation Voltage RF MEMS Switch
Low-loss microwave microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) shunt switches are reported that utilize highly compliant serpentine spring folded suspensions together with large area capacitive actuators to achieve low actuation voltages while maintaining sufficient off-state isolation. The RF MEMS switches were fabricated via a surface micromachining process using PI2545 Polyimide 1 as the sacrifici...
