چکیده
A 0.12 μW power dissipation quartz oscillator with 32,768 Hz frequency was designed and fabricated. Stability of the oscillator versus power supply and temperature variations was measured. The design is suitable for the role of the RTC (real-time clock) or main system clock in low-power, battery-powered and energy harvesting systems.

A Highly Sensitive Humidity Sensor Based on Ultrahigh-Frequency Microelectromechanical Resonator Coated with Nano-Assembled Polyelectrolyte Thin Films
We developed a highly sensitive humidity sensor based on the combination of ultrahigh-frequency film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) and nano-assembled polyelectrolyte (PET) thin films. The water molecule absorption efficiency was optimized by forming loosely-packed PET nanostructures. Then, the humidity sensing characteristics were analyzed in terms of sensitivity, linearity, reversibility, sta...

A completely monolithic high-Q oscillator, fabricated via a combined CMOS plus surface micromachining technology, is described, for which the oscillation frequency is controlled by a polysilicon micromechanical resonator to achieve stability and phase noise performance comparable to those of quartz crystal oscillators. It is shown that the closed-loop, steady-state oscillation amplitude of this...

The quartz crystal used in the reference oscillator in a wireless communication transceiver is among the most difficult to integrate on chip. On-chip devices capable of matching its Q (on the order of 10,000) and temperature stability (<35ppm over 0-70C) are generally unavailable. Recently, an on-chip vibrating clamped-clamped beam (CC-beam) micromechanical resonator based on MEMS technology ha...

The design of a 500 MHz oscillator in a 65 nm CMOS process using a 2 GHz bulk acoustic wave (BAW) resonator is presented. A digital frequency control is implemented using a switched capacitor bank in parallel to the resonator. The tuning range is up to 500 kHz with a minimum step of 200 Hz. The oscillator core uses a differential topology and is designed for low phase noise (2128 dBc/Hz at 100 ...
متن کاملA 750μW 1.575GHz Temperature-Stable FBAR-Based PLL
A 1.575GHz phase-locked loop (PLL) using a bulk acoustic wave resonator (FBAR) based VCO is presented. Closein phase noise is suppressed by the loop, while high-offset noise is suppressed by the extremely high Q (>2000) VCO. This technique results in a 750μW PLL with phase noise of -82 and -138dBc/Hz at 1kHz and 1MHz offset, respectively. A temperature-compensated FBAR stack is described, allow...
