Patent abstract
A micro-electromechanical (MEMS) actuator and relay are implemented using a copper coil and a magnetic core. The magnetic core includes a base section that lies within the copper coil, and a cantilever section that lies outside of the copper coil. The presence of a magnetic field in the coil causes the cantilever section to move horizontally away from a rest position, while the absence of the magnetic field allows the cantilever section to return to the rest position.
