Abstract :
This paper describes the design and measurement of a 2 GHz oscillator based on a solidly mounted thin film bulk acoustic wave resonator (SM TFBAR). The circuitry is patterned on an alumina substrate on which the transistors and capacitors are soldered. The SM TFBAR chip is integrated by means of wirebonding. The measured oscillator centre frequency is about 2.038 GHz with an output power of 0 dBm
