Abstract: An integrated module of acoustic wave device with active thermal compensation comprises a substrate, an acoustic wave filter, an active adjustment circuit and at least one variable capacitance device. The acoustic wave filter comprises a plurality of series acoustic wave resonators formed on the substrate, at least one shunt acoustic wave resonator formed on the substrate and a thermal sensing acoustic wave resonator. Each of the variable capacitance device is connected in parallel to one of the series and shunt acoustic wave resonators. The active adjustment circuit outputs an active thermal compensation signal correlated to a thermal variation sensed by the thermal sensing acoustic wave resonator to the variable capacitance device. The active thermal compensation signal induces a capacitance variation of the variable capacitance device such that the impact of the thermal variation to the acoustic wave device is compensated.

The thermal sensing acoustic wave resonator is one of a series acoustic wave resonator and a shunt acoustic wave resonator. Thereby the thermal sensing acoustic wave resonator plays dual roles of thermal sensing and acoustic wave filtering.

Abstract: A thermal sensor circuit comprises a conversion circuit which is one of a buck DC-DC converter circuit and a boost DC-DC converter circuit, wherein the conversion circuit comprises an inductor and an output terminal. A thermal sensor senses a thermal variation correlated to a capacitance variation of the thermal sensor. The capacitance variation induces an internal parasitic capacitance variation of the inductor which is connected in parallel to the thermal sensor and results a variation of an energy stored in the inductor. Hence a variation of a converted circuit signal outputting by the output terminal is caused, wherein the variation of the converted circuit signal is correlated to the thermal variation.
