Electronic device and method of matching the impedance thereof
First Claim
1. An electronic device provided with a first and a second micro-electromechanical switch assembly on a substrate, between which first and second switch assembly a first line having a first impedance and a second line having a second impedance are present, the first switch assembly being provided with an input terminal and a first and a second output terminal connected to the first and the second line respectively, and the second switch assembly being provided with an output terminal and with a first and second input terminal connected to the first and second line respectively,wherein the first and second switch assemblies are each arranged to, in one switching condition thereof, connect the input terminal of the first switch assembly to only one of the first and second output terminals of the first switch assembly, and to connect only one of the first and second input terminals of the second switch assembly to the output terminal of the second switch assembly;
- andwherein the first and second switch assemblies are arranged to, in another switching condition thereof, connect the input terminal of the first switch assembly to both of the first and second output terminals of the first switch assembly, and to connect both of the first and second output terminals and the second switch assembly to the output terminal of the second switch assembly.
