Abstract
A MEMS device including an active layer having a first surface and a second surface is provided. A first electrode and a second electrode, and at least one reconfigurable electrode segment are arranged over the first surface of the active layer. At least one reconfiguration layer is arranged over the second surface of the active layer. The at least one reconfigurable electrode segment and the at least one reconfiguration layer overlaps. One or more via contacts are disposed through the active layer configured to couple the at least one reconfigurable electrode segment and the at least one reconfiguration layer. The at least one reconfiguration layer is coupled to a reconfiguration switch for reconfiguring electrical connections to the at least one reconfigurable electrode segment. The MEMS device is configured to generate different resonant frequencies by reconfiguring the electrical connections to the at least one reconfigurable electrode segment using the reconfiguration switch.
