    摘要: A surface micromachined micromagnetic actuator is provided with a flap capable of achieving large deflections above 100 microns using magnetic force as the actuating force. The flap is coupled by one or more beams to a substrate and is cantilevered over the substrate. A Permalloy layer or a magnetic coil is disposed on the flap such that when the flap is placed in a magnetic field, it can be caused to selectively interact and rotate out of the plane of the magnetic actuator. The cantilevered flap is released from the underlying substrate by etching out an underlying sacrificial layer disposed between the flap and the substrate. The etched out and now cantilevered flap is magnetically actuated to maintain it out of contact with the substrate while the just etched device is dried in order to obtain high release yields.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a packet switch and a packet switching method. An example embodiment of the present invention comprises at least three network ports, at least one instrument port, a mux-switch, a packet switch fabric, and an address table. The embodiment updates the address table to include the source address of each ingress packet of each network port and associate the source address with that network port. The mux-switch routes the ingress packet traffic of each network port according to the identity of the network port so that at least a copy of the packet traffic of one of the network ports is routed to an instrument port. The packet switch fabric routes the packets from the instrument ports to the network ports according the destination address of the packet and the identity of the network port that is associated with the destination address as recorded in the address table.

    摘要: A fiber-optic microswitch is disclosed that includes a flexible mirror positioning structure including an outer fixed frame, a movable platform upon which a mirror is formed, and two or more resilient support members (e.g., monocrystalline silicon springs or torsion beams) connecting the movable platform to the fixed frame. Stationary fibers are mounted over the mirror. An electromagnetic drive mechanism is provided for positioning the movable platform relative to the fixed frame. The electromagnetic drive mechanism includes one or more coils formed on a drive substrate mounted under the monocrystalline structure, and one or more pole pieces that are mounted on the movable platform. Currents are selectively applied to the coils to generate attractive electromagnetic forces that pull the pole pieces, thereby causing the movable platform to move (e.g., tilt) relative to the fixed frame, thereby selectively directing light from one fiber to another. Various monocrystalline structures are disclosed.

    摘要: A micro-switch having a flexible conductive membrane which is moved by an external force, such as pressure from an air flow, to establish a connection between contact pads. The conductive membrane is stretched over one or more spacer pads to introduce deformation in the conductive membrane, thereby improving the accuracy and repeatability of the micro-switch. The spacing between the contact pads and the conductive membrane is precisely controlled by controlling the height difference between the spacer pads and the conductive pads. This height difference is determined by one or more precisely controlled etch operations.
