This paper discusses some reliability issues that play a role for capacitive RF MEMS switches. We describe how these degradation mechanisms affect the functioning of the switches. Also the methodology that can be used to test capacitive RF MEMS switches, including some packaging aspects, and dedicated instrumentation required to perform these tests are discussed.
