Zusammenfassung:	According to one embodiment a microelectromechanical (MEMS) switch is disclosed. The MEMS switch includes a pulse generator to provide a low voltage source, a transformer coupled to the pulse generator to boost a voltage received from the pulse generator and a switch component coupled to the pulse generator. The switch component includes an actuation capacitor to store charge associated with the voltage received from the transformer.
