Abstract
Micro-electromechanical switches (MEMS) are configured to form a data storage latch to reduce power consumption, to reduce the space used in an integrated circuit, and to improve performance of the integrated circuit. MEMS are implemented at the wiring layer connected to an integrated circuit and coupled to form a storage latch.
