A lumped element model for microwave MEMS switches in series configuration is discussed. The equivalent circuit that is presented, composed of inductors, resistors and capacitors in the OFF state, can be easily implemented in commercial software packages. Good agreement with experimental results confirms the validity of the proposed model
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
