Abstract
A torsional MEMS varactor with wide dynamic range, lower actuation voltage and isolation between actuation voltage and signal voltage has been proposed in C. Venkatesh et al. (2005). In this paper we address the effects of pull-in, residual stress and continuous cycling on the performance of torsional MEMS varactor.
