ABSTRACT:
The method for manufacturing a micromechanical switch includes manufacturing a hanging bar, on a first semiconductor substrate, equipped at an end thereof with a contact electrode, and a frame projecting from the first semiconductor substrate. A second semiconductor substrate with conductive tracks includes a second input/output electrode and a third starting electrode, and first and second spacers electrically connected to the conductive tracks. The frame is abutted with the first spacers so that the fourth contact electrode abuts on the second input/output electrode in response to an electrical signal provided to the hanging bar by the third starting electrode.
