Abstract

We present in this paper IDT´s efforts and progress in the development and commercialization of world´s first piezoelectric MEMS resonators for high performance timing applications. IDT´s pMEMS™ resonators consist of a piezoelectric material on a single-crystal silicon layer substrate. Based on pMEMS™ technology, IDT is now shipping world´s lowest jitter MEMS Oscillators with less than 0.3ps RMS jitter (12kHz to 20MHz). In addition, pMEMS™ oscillators have demonstrated great long term frequency stability and immunity to shock / vibration testing.
