Popis: A zero-level packaged, digitally switched, RF MEMS capacitor array has been developed within a mass production capable HV RF CMOS process. These RF MEMS capacitors are grouped in flip-chip cells that exhibit a high quality factor of 87 at 2 GHz, a tuning ratio of almost 10 to 1, a self resonant frequency greater than 5 GHz, and operate using a 3.3V supply voltage. These arrays are ideally suited for front-end tuning applications in portable wireless devices such as cell phones.
