This paper presents a microelectromechanical systems contact switch having both hard and soft contact materials in a single cantilever-type switching device. It operates with a zipping mechanism within which both contact materials (Pt-to-Pt and Au-to-Au) make individual contact sequentially and then detach in a reverse sequence to take advantage of both contact materials: low contact resistance and...
This paper reports a new concept of a non-volatile circuit implemented by using nano/microelectro-mechanical system (N/MEMS). The proposed circuit can memorize its previous states with no power consumption when it is frozen by the disconnection of power. When re-powered, the circuit wakes up instantly and can continue the operation because it still holds the previous states. Demonstration was successfully...
A variable MEMS inductor is one of the key components for reconfigurable RF circuits, but the variable inductors having continuous and large tuning range are very hard to implement. In this paper, we proposed the combination of continuous and discrete variable inductor to enlarge the continuous tuning range of inductance. In order to realize the proposed combination, we focused on the discrete variable...
