A microrelay device is described including a substrate with a first pair of contacts, a ferromagnetic material and a conductive coil surrounding the ferromagnetic material. The microrelay also includes an actuator having a permanent magnet and a contact area. The actuator is fixed at a first end and movable between a first position and a second position. The contact area of the actuator is spaced from the pair of contacts on the substrate in the first position and in contact with the first pair of contacts on the substrate in the second position. A method of fabricating a microrelay device is also described including forming a conductive coil embedded in an insulating material.
