A method for manufacturing a micro electro-mechanical system (MEMS) switch system (600, 700) includes etching each of a plurality of base circuit layers (425) and a plurality of passive component substrate layers (412, 418, 42, 426). The method continues with laser milling of a first dielectric film (406) to create a spacer layer (405). A metal cladding (402, 403) formed on a flexible dielectric film layer 404 is etched so as to form a plurality of switch component features. Further laser milling is performed with respect to the flexible dielectric film layer to form at least one switch structure (448, 450). Thereafter, a stack (400) is assembled which is comprised of the spacer layer disposed between the flexible dielectric film layer and the plurality of base circuit layers. Additional layers can also be included in the stack. When the stack is completed, heat and pressure are applied to join the various layers forming the stack.
