Abstract

See full text

An electronic device (1) has a substrate (2) of monocrystalline silicon on which is an integrated circuit (3). The integrated circuit is an oscillator containing a resonator, a maintenance circuit to cause the vibration of the resonator, and a frequency division chain. The maintenance circuit as well as the division chain are manufactured as CMOS circuits. The resonator is an integrated resonator (4) formed of a body cut out in a delimited surface part of reduced thickness (14) of the substrate (2), of a thin layer of piezoelectric material (10) deposited on at least a part (6) of the body, and of a thin metallic layer (11) deposited on the piezoelectric layer (10) so as to form an electrode.
