Cenfire Corporation

Cenfire is unlocking a new era of MEMS switching with an all-silicon platform that leverages the same scalable, proven infrastructure that has powered the semiconductor industry for decades. Built entirely on standard silicon, the technology delivers high-voltage handling, low-loss operation, and fast switching performance comparable to electromechanical relays—without relying on esoteric material sets, exotic fabrication processes, or unscalable design philosophies. Rather than attempting to fabricate complex structures from rare materials, Cenfire uses the most abundant, cost-effective, and industrially mature material on Earth to address the toughest switching challenges in power and signal electronics.

The company’s MEMS relay platform is based on a modular unit cell architecture that can be arrayed in series or parallel to support a wide range of voltage and current requirements. This architecture enables precise, application-specific optimization—combining the speed and longevity of solid-state switches with the galvanic isolation and power-handling capabilities of mechanical relays. Cenfire’s silicon-based MEMS switches are orders of magnitude smaller and faster than traditional relays, with dramatically reduced power consumption and footprint—ideal for compact, high-performance systems.

From aerospace and defense to electric vehicles, renewable energy systems, and high-efficiency power converters, Cenfire delivers chip-scale switching performance to markets long limited by the size, speed, and inefficiencies of legacy relay technologies. Like every transformative hardware platform before it, this is the future of switching—built on silicon, again.
