Abstract :
An FSK transmitter is modulated by changing the polarization voltage of a micromechanical resonator. The transmitter frequency can be programmed from 2 to 437MHz with 1ppm accuracy. The transmitter has 6times greater frequency deviation than quartz-based FSK modulators, 20kb/s data rate, and total 8ppm frequency variation from -40 to 85degC
