In particular, differing from the previously demonstrated receiver using a CMOS-incompatible Au fabrication process [1], this work utilizes a standard 0.35-μm CMOS process to achieve a folded-beam comb-driven resoswitch with a digital decoder. Enabled by the key component of the resoswitch, the receiver realizes on-chip signal filtering, power amplification, and demodulation, all together consuming an averaged 10.46 μW when processing “1” and zero power for “0” and at standby. This demonstration verifies the efficacy of using low-cost, high-fidelity CMOS processes towards all-mechanical resoswitch-based RF applications.[SDGs]SDG7conference paper10.1109/MEMS46641.2020.90561202-s2.0-85083218233
