Abstract
The development of a novel fully integrated microelectromechanical system (MEMS) for RF purposes is presented. It is composed of a paddle polysilicon micro-resonator electrostatically excited and a capacitive CMOS read-out amplifier. The micro-resonator is fabricated directly on a commercial CMOS technology, only requiring a wet etching process for the release of the resonant structure after the full CMOS integration. Electrical characterisation of the on-chip resonant device has been performed showing a resonance frequency near 100 MHz.
