Abstract
A tunable microelectronic capacitor and a tunable microelectronic inductor, each utilizing a micro-actuator fabricated by MEMS technique as a major component in the capacitor, the micro-actuator drives a dielectric plate in between to electrode plates to vary the capacitance. In the inductor, the micro-actuator drives a cantilever beam member made of a magnetic material into an inductor coil for changing the inductance of the coil.
