This paper illustrates the activity carried out in the frame of the ESA contract NR.14628/NL/CK for the development of a miniaturized RF-MEM SPDT switch and switch matrix using micro-machining technology on Silicon substrate for power applications. A manufacturing procedure, based on eight masks process has been aligned at ITC-irst laboratories. At the present a broadband Single-Pole-Double-Throw (SPDT) switch operating in the frequency range 0-30 GHz has been fabricated and measured. Isolation of about -40 dB, insertion loss better than -0.7 dB have been obtained

Abstract
This paper illustrates the activity carried out in the frame of the ESA contract NR.14628/NL/CK for the development of a miniaturized RF-MEM SPDT switch and switch matrix using micro-machining technology on Silicon substrate for power applications. A manufacturing procedure, based on eight masks process has been aligned at ITC-irst laboratories. At the present a broadband Single-Pole-Double-Throw (SPDT) switch operating in the frequency range 0-30 GHz has been fabricated and measured. Isolation of about -40 dB, insertion loss better than -0.7 dB have been obtainedFile in questo prodotto:
