Tunable film bulk acoustic resonators and filters

In wireless communications, many radio frequency bands are used. For each frequency band, there are two frequencies, one for transmitting and the other for receiving. As the band widths are small and separation between adjacent bands is also small, many band pass filters with different band pass frequencies are required for each communication unit such as mobile handset. The invention provides tunable film bulk acoustic resonators TFBARs containing semiconducting piezoelectric layers and methods for tuning and adjusting the resonant properties. When a DC biasing voltage is varied, both the depletion region thickness and neutral region thickness associated in the semiconducting piezoelectric layers varies leading to changes in equivalent capacitances, inductance and resistances and hence the resonance properties and frequencies. A plurality of the present TFBARs are connected into a tunable oscillator or a tunable and selectable microwave filter for selecting and adjusting of the bandpass frequency by varying the biasing voltages.

An acoustic transformer in a transmitter chain is disclosed. In one aspect, a differential power amplifier may produce a differential signal that is provided to a first transformer. A differential output of this first transformer is provided to an acoustic transformer that provides a single-ended output signal for use by an acoustic filter. By making the second transformer an acoustic transformer, the second transformer may be integrated into the same circuitry that forms the acoustic filter, thereby simplifying the die. Further, the acoustic transformer may be tuned if ferroelectric resonators are used, which provides strong out-of-band signal cancelation.
