It specifically introduced the largest micromechanical circuit to date (using 206 elements) that shapes the frequency spectra of communication signals, as well as circuits that increase <em>Q<\/em>, switch charge and voltage, react to optical inputs, and divide frequency, all mechanically. The advancements of this year set the stage for the first practical all-mechanical receivers to come in subsequent years. The year culminated with demonstration of a super-regenerative transceiver that takes advantage of RF channel-selection by a multi-port wine-glass disk to clean up signals reaching its regenerative oscillator, providing superior blocker immunity versus previous renditions and showcasing the advantages of RF channel-selection. This transceiver became the product focus of MuMec. Finally, 2014 introduced the negative capacitance electrical equivalent circuit for capacitive-gap transduced micromechanical resonators and in the process elucidated the impact of loading on the ports of these devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>R.
