Abstract

Techniques and configurations are disclosed for bulk acoustic wave resonator (BAWR) tuner circuits and their use in integrated circuit (IC) packages and mobile communication devices for radio frequency (RF) communication. In some embodiments, a mobile communication device may include an antenna; a transmitter circuit having an output port, a tuner circuit having one or more BAWRs, an antenna port coupled to the antenna, a transmitter port coupled to the output port of the transmitter circuit, and a control port; and a control circuit, coupled to the control port, configured to adjust an impedance of the tuner circuit, via adjustment of a BAWR or another component of the tuner circuit, based at least in part on an impedance of the antenna. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
