BAW Overview

BAW Resonator Technology (BAW) is a micro-resonator technology that enables the integration of high-precision and ultra-low jitter clocks directly into packages that contain other circuits. In the BAW oscillator, the BAW is integrated with a collocated precision temperature sensor, an ultra-low jitter, low power integer output divider (IOD), a single-ended LVCMOS output driver, and a small power-reset-clock management system consisting of several low noise LDOs.

Figure 2-1 shows the structure of the BAW Resonator Technology. The structure includes a thin layer of piezoelectric film sandwiched between metal films and other layers that confine the mechanical energy. The BAW utilizes this piezoelectric transduction to generate a vibration.
