Abstract:
For producing a structured coating, or for carefully lifting off a coating over a sensitive region, it is proposed that a release film be applied and structured under the coating in the region which is not to be coated. In a release step, the release film is reduced in the adhesion in the region which is not to be coated and is subsequently lifted off together with the coating applied over it.
Abstract:
An RF antenna switch and a method for operating the antenna switch are disclosed. In an embodiment the antenna switch includes an antenna terminal and a switch including a number of n I/O terminals and n-x transceiver units, wherein each transceiver unit is configured to operate in a frequency band of a respective communication system, and wherein n and x are integers and n, x≧1 and n>x. The switch is further adapted to independently connect a plurality of the I/O terminals to the antenna terminal to provide a respective signal paths from the antenna terminal to the I/O terminals, wherein a first filter is connected between a first I/O terminal and a common input node of a first transceiver unit, the first filter being adapted to filter out an unwanted harmonic mode produced by a transmitter of the first transceiver unit.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a relay (1), having a first terminal (2), a second terminal (3), a contact (4) which in a closed state brings about an electrical connection between the first and second terminals (2, 3) and which in an opened state electrically disconnects the first and second terminals (2, 3), a first electromagnet (5) which is configured in such a way that it places the contact (4) in the closed state if the first electromagnet (5) is switched on, and a second electromagnet (6) which is configured in such a way that it keeps the contact (4) in the closed state if the contact (4) is in the closed state and the second electromagnet (6) is switched on.
Abstract:
A method can be used for producing a microelectromechanical transducer. A plurality of microelectromechanical transducers are produced on a single wafer. Each transducer includes a diaphragm. The wafer is divided into at least a first and a second region. The mechanical tensions of a random sample of diaphragms of the first region are established and the values are compared with a predetermined desired value. The mechanical tensions of a random sample of diaphragms of the second region are established and the values are compared with the predetermined desired value. The tensions of the diaphragms in the first region are adjusted to the predetermined desired value, and the tensions of the diaphragms in the second region are adjusted to the predetermined desired value.
