ABSTRACT:
A MEMS module that contains at least one integrated energy storage device whose discharge is minimized and controlled, so that power is available for system operation over longer periods of time. The MEMS module includes a device electrically coupled to the energy storage device for controlling charge transfers from the energy storage device while preventing charge leakage from the energy storage device. The controlling device includes a plurality of integrated MEMS switches that define open electrical paths that prevent charge leakage from the energy storage device through the MEMS switches, and are then operable to define closed electrical paths to allow charge transfers from the energy storage device, and preferably also allow charge transfers to the energy storage device, through the MEMS switches. The charge transfer can be utilized to power electronic circuits or store data in non-volatile digital memory.
