MEMS Relay and Switch Platform
Atomica’s MEMS relay and switch platform offers significant improvements in size, power, reliability and speed over incumbent relay technologies such as reed relays, electromechanical relays, and solid-state relays.
The world’s first scalable and configurable switching technology platform
Over the past decade, Atomica has perfected the contact metallurgy and the beam structure for high-performance, highly reliable MEMS relays and switches. These innovations serve as the basis for Atomica’s relay technology platform which can be customized for many applications.
Atomica’s MEMS Relay Platform
Atomica has perfected a MEMS ohmic contact relay, which is highly configurable for RF and high-power DC applications (up to 40A and above). Atomica has succeeded where many companies have failed by creating an extremely small switching technology platform that is manufacturable, scalable, and capable of the highest current density of any switch in the world — over one amp through our switches unit cell (a component only 1mm x 1mm in size).
Our MEMS Relay Platform provides the following advantages:
- Highly reliable single crystal silicon beam
- Highest current density switch in the world by a factor of 10x
- Low contact resistance
- Billion+ cycles of reliability
- Ultra-small size
- Load Impedence Independent
- Ultra-low-power consumption
- Hot switching capable
- Built-in circuit breaker / over-current protection
- Scalable and configurable
- Switching speed: < 10 μs
