  2. MEMS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MEMS

    MEMS microcantilever resonating inside a scanning electron microscope Proposal submitted to DARPA in 1986 first introducing the term "microelectromechanical systems". MEMS (micro-electromechanical systems) is the technology of microscopic devices incorporating both electronic and moving parts.

  3. Microelectromechanical system oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microelectromechanical...

    MEMS clock generators are MEMS timing devices with multiple outputs for systems that need more than a single reference frequency. MEMS oscillators are a valid alternative to older, more established quartz crystal oscillators , offering better resilience against vibration and mechanical shock, and reliability with respect to temperature variation.

  4. Radio-frequency microelectromechanical system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-frequency_micro...

    A radio-frequency microelectromechanical system (RF MEMS) is a microelectromechanical system with electronic components comprising moving sub-millimeter-sized parts that provide radio-frequency (RF) functionality. [1] RF functionality can be implemented using a variety of RF technologies.

  5. Microoptoelectromechanical systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microoptoelectromechanical...

    During 1991-1993, Dr. M. Edward Motamedi, a former Rockwell International innovator in the areas of both microelectromechanical systems and micro-optics, used internally the acronym of MOEMS for microoptoelectromechanical systems. This was to distinguish between optical MEMS and MOEMS, where optical MEMS could include bulk optics but MOEMS is ...

  6. Piezoelectric microelectromechanical systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezoelectric_micro...

    The first reported piezoelectrically actuated RF MEMS switch was developed by scientists at the LG Electronics Institute of Technology in Seoul, South Korea in 2005. [3] The researchers designed and actualized a RF MEMS switch with a piezoelectric cantilever actuator that had an operation voltage of 2.5 volts. [7]

  7. MEMS magnetic actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MEMS_Magnetic_Actuator

    Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) technology [1] is a process technology in which mechanical and electro-mechanical devices or structures are constructed using special micro-fabrication techniques. These techniques include: bulk micro-machining, surface micro-machining, LIGA, wafer bonding, etc. MEMS scale of dimensions

  8. Harvey C. Nathanson - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harvey_C._Nathanson

    The first MEMS device.. Harvey C. Nathanson (October 22, 1936 – November 22, 2019) was an American electrical engineer who, with engineer Robert A. Wickstrom, invented the first MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical systems) device of the type now found in products ranging from iPhones to automobiles.

  9. Microtechnology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microtechnology

    The term MEMS, for Micro Electro Mechanical Systems, was coined in the 1980s to describe new, sophisticated mechanical systems on a chip, such as micro electric motors, resonators, gears, and so on. Today, the term MEMS in practice is used to refer to any microscopic device with a mechanical function, which can be fabricated in a batch process ...
