The influence of the bias signal waveform on the electro-mechanical dynamic response of ohmic RF-MEMS switches is here investigated. Laser Doppler Vibrometer and electrical measurements were performed to characterize the actuation time, as well as bounces occurrences and reliability to cycling stress. A practical solution to limit bounces without compromise the actuation time is also presented.

Abstract

The influence of the bias signal waveform on the electro-mechanical dynamic response of ohmic RF-MEMS switches is here investigated. Laser Doppler Vibrometer and electrical measurements were performed to characterize the actuation time, as well as bounces occurrences and reliability to cycling stress. A practical solution to limit bounces without compromise the actuation time is also presented.
