Abstract

See full text

The present invention generally relates to a DVC having a charge-pump coupled to a MEMS device. The charge-pump is designed to control the output voltage delivered to the electrodes, such as the pull-in electrode or the pull-off electrode, that move the switching element within the MEMS device between locations spaced far from and disposed closely to the RF electrode.
