This paper demonstrates a surface micromachined millimeter wave phase shifter with small size and large phase shift per line loss using semi-lumped elements transmission structure. The multi-pole phase shifter can be easily fabricated by cascading the unit cell. The unit cell of the phase shifter is composed of the high impedance center signal line and bridge type variable capacitors. The variable capacitors are suspended 2µm over the plate connected to the both sides of the signal line to reduce the unit cell length, resulting in high phase shift per line length. The measured pull-in voltage of the variable capacitor is 50 V. The fabricated phase shifter shows high phase shift per loss (76.2 °/dB) as well as the high phase shift per line length (25.3 °/mm) at 50 GHz with the applied DC bias of 45 V.
