Abstract
A high Q integrated inductor-capacitor (L-C) resonator (200) includes a planar inductor (201) having a plurality of turns and a serially connected first and second capacitor (205, 207) that is connected in parallel with the planar inductor (201). The first and second capacitors (205, 207) are positioned within at least one turn of the planar inductor (201) for reducing the parasitic interconnection resistance between the planar inductor (201) and first and second capacitor (205, 207) and also increasing the Q factor of the L-C resonator.
