Abstract
A microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) switch device including current sensing and overcurrent protection can include a movable plate movable between an open position and a closed position, wherein the moveable plate is moved by applying at least one or more of an electrostatic force and a magnetic force to move the movable plate. The movable plate can include a shunt operable to conduct current when the movable plate is the closed position. An inductive coil electronically coupled to the shunt can detect current conducted through the shunt.
