Parametric Resonance in Time-Dependent Networks of Hopf Oscillators

Max-Olivier Hongler, Julio Rodriguez

We study a collection of limit cycle oscillators with different frequencies interacting via networks. With static networks, our specific class of models produces a frequency learning mechanism leading the collection of oscillators to ultimately adopt a sin ...

Low power frequency synthesizer for mobile communications systems

Imre Kovacs

A novel frequency synthesizer with a strong emphasis on low-power consumption (2mW) was developed for this thesis. A BAW-resonator was used for the design of the high-frequency oscillator. The BAW's high Q-Factor ensured a minimal power consumption, while ...

Nanogap MEM resonators on SOI

Nicoleta-Diana Ciressan

Today's consumer electronics based on a large variety of time-keeping and frequency reference applications is based on quartz-crystal oscillators, because of their excellent performances in terms of quality factor, thermal and frequency stability. However, ...

Adaptive Frequency Oscillators and Applications

Auke Ijspeert, Jonas Buchli, Ludovic Righetti

In this contribution we present a generic mechanism to transform an oscillator into an adaptive frequency oscillator, which can then dynamically adapt its parameters to learn the frequency of any periodic driving signal. Adaptation is done in a dynamic way ...

9 MHz vibrating body FET tuning fork oscillator

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Maher Kayal, Daniel Grogg, Fabrizio Lo Conte

A 9.4MHz micro-electromechanical oscillator based on a Vibrating Body Field Effect Transistor (VB-FET) is presented in this work. The tuning fork VB-FET used in this work provides a high quality factor of 9400 in the open-loop configuration and a low equiv ...

A low-power 2.4 GHz CMOS receiver using BAW resonators

Jérémie Chabloz

It has already been a few years since the first appearance of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) in academic research. Since then, a broad number of devices have been designed under this generic term. Bulk-acoustic wave (BAW) resonators are among the f ...

Frequency analysis with coupled nonlinear oscillators

Auke Ijspeert, Jonas Buchli, Ludovic Righetti

We present a method to obtain the frequency spectrum of a signal with a nonlinear dynamical system. The dynamical system is composed of a pool of adaptive frequency oscillators with negative mean-field coupling. For the frequency analysis, the synchronizat ...

Miniaturized PMMA ball-valve micropump with cylindrical electromagnetic actuator

Martinus Gijs, Christophe Yamahata, Meng Shen

We have fabricated and characterized a reciprocating poly(methylmetacrylate) (PMMA) ball-valve micropump actuated with a miniaturized cylindrical electromagnetic circuit. By finite element calculations, we have optimized the structure of the electromagnet ...

Building Blocks for an Ultra Low-Power MEMS-based Radio

Christian Enz

The recent advances made in MEMS and particularly in RF MEMS technology are enabling new architectures for the integration of RF transceivers with improved performance and smaller size. Several fundamental building blocks benefit from the availability of h ...
