A structure and method for integrating a crystal resonator with a control circuit are disclosed. The resonator is formed by forming a lower cavity (120) in the device wafer (100) containing the control circuit (110) and a piezoelectric vibrator (200) on a front side (100U) of the device wafer (100) and by fabricating a cap layer (420) using planar fabrication processes, which encloses the piezoelectric vibrator (200) within an upper cavity (400). In addition, a semiconductor die (500) may be bonded to a back side (100D) of the device wafer (100), helping in additionally increasing the integration of the crystal resonator and allowing on-chip modulation of the crystal resonator's parameters. In this way, in addition to being able to integrate with other semiconductor components more easily with a higher degree of integration, the crystal resonator is more compact in size and less power-consuming.

A structure and method for integrating a crystal resonator with a control circuit are disclosed. A piezoelectric vibrator (500) is formed on a back side of a device wafer (100) containing the control circuit, and planar fabrication processes are utilized to form a cap layer (720) which encloses the piezoelectric vibrator (500) within an upper cavity (700). Additionally, a semiconductor die (900) can be bonded to a front side of the device wafer (100). In addition to an increased degree of integration of the crystal resonator due to such integration with both the control circuit (110) and the semiconductor die (900), this also allows on-chip modulation of the crystal resonator's parameters. Moreover, compared with traditional crystal resonators, the resulting crystal resonator is more compact in size and hence less power-consuming.
