	MEMS-enabled Reconfigurable VCO and RF Filter
	D. Ramachandran, A. Oz, V. K. Saraf, G. Fedder and T. Mukherjee ABSTRACT:
	RF building block circuits that can reconfigure from one frequency to another are of interest in multifunction radios. Reconfigurable MEMS capacitors are integrated with on-chip inductors and transistors to design reconfigurable VCO and filter circuits. Electrothermal actuation of the MEMS capacitor leads to >400 MHz change in operating frequency.
