RF MEMS switched capacitors are capacitive fixed-fixed beam switches with a low capacitance ratio. RF MEMS varactors are capacitive fixed-fixed beam switches which are biased below pull-in voltage. Other examples of RF MEMS switches are ohmic cantilever switches, and capacitive single pole N throw (SPNT) switches based on the axial gap wobble ...
MEMS microcantilever resonating inside a scanning electron microscope Proposal submitted to DARPA in 1986 first introducing the term "microelectromechanical systems". MEMS (micro-electromechanical systems) is the technology of microscopic devices incorporating both electronic and moving parts.
MEMS clock generators are MEMS timing devices with multiple outputs for systems that need more than a single reference frequency. MEMS oscillators are a valid alternative to older, more established quartz crystal oscillators, offering better resilience against vibration and mechanical shock, and reliability with respect to temperature variation.
in DRAM memory circuits, capacitor trenches may be 10–20 μm deep, in MEMS, DRIE is used for anything from a few micrometers to 0.5 mm. in irregular chip dicing, DRIE is used with a novel hybrid soft/hard mask to achieve sub-millimeter etching to dice silicon dies into lego-like pieces with irregular shapes.
Some accelerometers use microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) capacitors etched on a chip to measure the magnitude and direction of the acceleration vector. They are used to detect changes in acceleration, e.g. as tilt sensors or to detect free fall, as sensors triggering airbag deployment, and in many other applications.
A digitally tuned capacitor is an IC variable capacitor based on several technologies. MEMS , BST and SOI / SOS devices are available from a number of suppliers and vary in capacitance range, quality factor and resolution for different RF tuning applications.
