Abstract
Multi-frequency capacitance cancellation in an acoustic filter circuit is provided. The acoustic filter circuit includes an acoustic resonator configured to resonate in a series resonance frequency to pass a radio frequency (RF) signal. However, the acoustic resonator may create an electrical capacitance that can cause the acoustic resonator to resonate at multiple operating frequencies outside the series resonance frequency, thus compromising performance of the acoustic resonator at these operating frequencies. Herein, a negative capacitance circuit is provided in parallel to the acoustic resonator and configured to present multiple negative capacitances to cancel (or at least reduce) the electrical capacitance at the operating frequencies. As a result, it is possible to improve the performance of the acoustic filter circuit across a broader frequency bandwidth.
