Abstract
A MEMS switch and a method of manufacturing the same are disclosed. The MEMS switch includes: a substrate including a trench, a ground line and a signal line having an opened portion; a moving plate separated from the substrate at a predetermined space and including a contact member for connecting an electrode plate and the opened portion and having a deep corrugate to insert the trench; and a supporting member for supporting the moving plate. Such a MEMS switch prevents the thermal expansion and the stiction problem.
