Inline capacitive and DC-contact MEMS shunt switches 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
This paper presents inline capacitive MEMS shunt switches suitable for X/K-band and Ka/V-band applications. The inline switch allows for a low- or high-inductance connection to the ground plane without changing the mechanical characteristics of the MEMS bridge. Excellent isolation and loss are achieved with this design, and the performance is very similar to the standard capacitive MEMS shunt switch. Also, a new metal-to-metal contact MEMS shunt switch is presented. A novel pull-down electrode is used which applies the electrostatic force at the same location as the metal-to-metal contact area. A contact resistance of 0.15-0.35 Ω is repeatable, and results in an isolation of -40 dB at 0.1-3 GHz. The measured isolation is still better than -20 dB at 40 GHz. The application areas are in high-isolation/low-loss switches for telecommunication and radar systems 相似文献

W-band CPW RF MEMS circuits on quartz substrates 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
This paper presents W-band coplanar waveguide RF microelectromechanical system (MEMS) capacitive shunt switches with very low insertion loss (-0.2 to -0.5 dB) and high-isolation (/spl les/ -30 dB) over the entire W-band frequency range. It is shown that full-wave electromagnetic modeling using Sonnet can predict the performance of RF MEMS switches up to 120 GHz. Also presented are W-band 0/spl deg//90/spl deg/ and 0/spl deg//180/spl deg/ switched-line phase shifters with very good insertion loss (1.75 dB/bit at 90 GHz) and a wide bandwidth of operation (75-100 GHz). These circuits are the first demonstration of RF MEMS digital-type phase shifters at W-band frequencies and they outperform their solid-state counterparts by a large margin. 相似文献

A novel approach for cost effective fabrication, assembly, and packaging of radio-frequency microelectromechanical systems (RF MEMS) capacitive switches using flexible circuit processing techniques is reported. The key feature of this approach is the use of most commonly used flexible circuit film, Kapton-E polyimide film, as the movable switch membrane. The physical dimensions of these switches are in the mesoscale range. For example, electrode area and gap height of a capacitive shunt switch on coplanar waveguide are 2 /spl times/ 1 mm/sup 2/ and 43 /spl mu/m, respectively. Pull-down voltage is in the range of 90-100 V. In the ON state (up-position), the insertion loss is less than 0.3-0.4 dB up to 30 GHz. In OFF state (down-position), the isolation value is about 15 dB at 12 GHz and increases to 36 dB at 30 GHz. These switches are uniquely suitable for batch integration with printed circuits and antennas on laminate substrates. 相似文献

In this paper, a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) radio-frequency (RF) microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology compatible with CMOS and high-voltage devices for system-on-a-chip applications is experimentally demonstrated for the first time. This technology allows the integration of RF MEMS switches with driver and processing circuits for single-chip communication applications. The SOI high-voltage device (0.7-/spl mu/m channel length, 2-/spl mu/m drift length, and over 35-V breakdown voltage), CMOS devices (0.7-/spl mu/m channel length and 1.3/-1.2 V threshold voltage), and RF MEMS capacitive switch (insertion loss 0.14 dB at 5 GHz and isolation 9.5 dB at 5 GHz) are designed and fabricated to show the feasibility of building fully integrated RF systems. The performance of the fabricated RF MEMS capacitive switches on low-resistivity and high-resistivity SOI substrates will also be compared. 相似文献

This letter presents the design of a reconfigurable amplifier with an adaptive matching network implemented by shunt MEMS switches. In particular, the MEMS switches are used as capacitive stubs in double-stub matching circuit designs. The effective capacitance of the switches can be varied by switch activation which results in a change of the matching configuration. The RF response of the adaptive matching network is studied and the power performance of the amplifier is presented. 相似文献

Micro-electro-mechanical-systems(MEMS) switches have low resistive loss, negligible power consumption, good isolation and high power handling capability compared with semiconductor switches. Lifetime of capacitive shunt switches strongly depends on the actuation voltage so low voltage switches is necessary to enhance its performance as well as to broaden its application area. This paper presents the design and simulation of low voltage capacitive shunt MEMS switches together with its RF performance for high frequency applications. The low voltage switches are realized by lowering the spring constant of the beam using serpentine spring designs together with large capacitive area so as to achieve the good RF performance as well. The pull-in voltage is analyzed with commercial CAD finite element analysis software CoventorWare. The electromagnetic performance in terms of scattering parameters, insertion loss, and isolation are analyzed with software Ansoft HFSS10. The switches achieved insertion loss \(<\) 0.47 dB in on state from 2 to 40 GHz; it provided better than 25 dB isolation in off state with a capacitance ratio of 94–96. The actuation voltage as low as 1.5 V with actuation area \(110\,\times \,100\,\upmu \mathrm{m^2}\) along with good RF performance is reported. The design parameter optimization including selection of appropriate number of meanders and its width found to be one of the most sensitive factors affecting the spring stiffness and actuation voltage. 相似文献

This paper describes a circuit design and experimental results of a video-rate 10-b analog-to-digital converter (ADC) suitable for portable audio-visual equipment. Two new circuit techniques, termed pipelined capacitive interpolation and error averaging circuits with capacitor networks, are developed. As a result, very low power dissipation of 30 mW at a low power-supply voltage of 2.5 V is attained at the conversion frequency of 20 MHz. Also, a good DNL of less than ±0.5 LSB and an acceptable signal-to-noise and distortion ratio of 55 dB are obtained for the input frequencies of 1 kHz and 1 MHz, respectively. The ADC is fabricated in 0.8-μm CMOS technology and occupies an area of 2.6×2.5 mm2 相似文献
