Parameter Extraction and Support-Loss in MEMS Resonators
Abstract
In this paper it is shown how the equivalent circuit parameters of a MEMS resonator can be simply obtained from an eigenfrequency simulation. Additionally, it is demonstrated that the Q-factor as a result of support losses in a MEMS resonator can be determined using a matched boundary layer. The method is applied to calculate the frequency dependent admittance of a diamond disk resonator. Results agree well with measurements and analytic results. Comparison to a frequency response analysis establishes the validity of the method and shows that it results in a large reduction of the simulation time.
