Abstract

This abstract describes an improved manufacturing technology for fabrication of RF-MEMS switches on PCB. The 17.5μm thick copper layer is patterned and planarized using polyimide. The use of polyimide reduces formation of voids in sacrificial photoresist. Fabricated switches demonstrate low insertion-loss (<0.06dB at l0GHz) and good isolation (>20dB at l0GHz).
