PORTLAND, Ore. — Electronic switching of high-frequency signals currently must be handled by either mechanical switches or reed relays. Now, MEMS switches can do the same job in a smaller package, ...

3. Four MEMS cantilever switch beams are used in the SP4T switches. The ADGM1004 is designed to deliver extremely high ESD resistance using a dedicated circuit to produce a human-body-model (HBM ...

MagLatch RF relays switch DC to 6-GHz signals in 50-Ω systems. Fabricated using a surface micromachining approach, the relays rely on the preferential-magnetization characteristic of a cantilever made ...

MEMS RF switches have distinct advantages over solid-state switches. They provide much lower insertion loss, higher isolation, better linearity, use lower power and are potentially cheaper. They also ...

For his work on RF MEMS metal-contact switches, electrical engineering Ph.D. student Chirag Patel won the top prize at Research Expo 2011 at the UC San Diego Jacobs School of Engineering.

Reducing the RF MEMS Switch Design Cycle. July 20, 2021. Keysight PathWave Software Selected by Menlo Micro to Reduce Design Cycle for their latest Radio Frequency Microelectromechanical Switch.

Performance, of capped switches made in industrial foundries, is -0.2dB insertion loss and -45dB isolation at 2GHz. Typical linearity of high throw-count switches is claimed to be >90dBm – capped is ...

DelfMEMS demonstrated what it says as the world's first, twelve throw, RF MEMS ohmic contact switch at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2015. Cybele Rolland, DelfMEMS CEO, explained, ""Until now, companies ...

Other companies may talk about using MEMS in RF solutions, but with them you are talking about US$5 and US$10 parts. There is not enough BOM in cell phones to do a US5$ switch. Q: So what is the ...

GE Global Research announced it developed a brand new switch technology that can be used for enhancing the radios used in 4G phones to provide much faster speeds. Called a “MEMS switch”, it ...

RF MEMS switching solution developer DelfMEMS has raised €5.4million in round C funding. Guillaume d'Eyssautier, DelfMEMS CEO, said: "The progress that we have made in turning RF MEMS switches into ...

NEW YORK, USA: RF Micro Devices, a global leader in the design and manufacture of high-performance RF systems and solutions, has introduced its proprietary micro-electro-mechanical systems, or ...
