摘要： Determining the ratio between two frequencies can be a useful electronic building block in different electronic circuits with very divers functionalities. The invention comprises a circuit for determining a frequency ratio between a first input signal having a first frequency and a second input signal having a second frequency, wherein the circuit comprises: a controlled fractional frequency divider arranged for generating a divided signal having a divided frequency being substantially the first frequency divided by a control signal; a frequency phase detector arranged for generating a phase difference signal based on a frequency phase difference between the divided frequency of the divided signal and the second frequency of the second input signal; and a loop filter arranged for generating the control signal based on the phase difference signal; wherein a loop is formed by the controlled fractional frequency divider, the divided signal, the frequency phase detector, the phase difference signal, the loop filter and the control signal; wherein the loop filter filters the phase difference signal such that instability of the loop is prevented; and wherein the control signal, preferably the magnitude of the control signal, is indicative of the frequency ratio.

摘要： The disclosed technology generally relates to quartz crystal devices and more particularly to quartz crystal devices configured to vibrate in torsional mode. In one aspect, a quartz crystal device configured for temperature sensing comprises a fork-shaped quartz crystal comprising a pair of elongate tines laterally extending from a base region in a horizontal lengthwise direction of the fork-shaped quartz crystal, wherein each of the tines has formed on one or both of opposing sides thereof a pair of vertically recessed groove structures laterally elongated in the horizontal lengthwise direction, wherein the pair of groove structures are separated in a horizontal widthwise direction by a line structure. The quartz crystal device further comprises a first electrode and a second electrode formed on the one or both of the opposing sides of each of the tines and configured such that, when an electrical bias is applied between the first and second electrodes, the fork-shaped quartz crystal vibrates in a torsional mode in which each of the tines twists about a respective axis extending in the horizontal lengthwise direction.
