Micro-electromechanical inductive switch

A MEM switch on a stationary substrate comprising:

• an arrangement of inductors grouped in close proximity of each other, and at least one inductor separate from said arrangement of inductors;
• and
• two inductors interconnected to each other on a rotating platform, wherein one of said inductors on said rotating platform alternatively couples and decouples one of said inductors in said arrangement of inductors by the rotation of rotating platform, while the second inductor on said rotating platform couples and decouples said at least one inductor separate from said arrangement of inductors on said stationary substrate.

A MEM switch comprising:

• a first and second arrangement of inductors on a stationary substrate;
• and
• two pairs of inductors, said two pairs respectively placed on two moveable platforms, said moveable platforms being coupled to each other at respective ends of a fulcrum, said fulcrum being attached to a pivot pin allowing a rotating movement of said moveable platforms, wherein said rotational movement couples and decouples respective pairs of said inductors on said moveable platforms to and from respective pairs of said first and second arrangement of inductors on said stationary substrate.

A MEM switch comprising:

• an arrangement of inductors on a stationary substrate;
• and
• a moveable platform rotating about a pivot pin, said moveable platform having two inductors thereon, said moveable platform allowing each of said inductors thereon alternatively couple and decouple inductors of said arrangement on said stationary substrate.
