Summary:
The MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) oscillator has a high quality factor Q and it is enabled to accumulate on the silicon wafer. Therefore the oscillator works with low power and miniaturization of the device size is realized. So researches of micromechanical oscillators have been active in recent years. The MEMS oscillators can be coupled to each other, leading to potential applications such as neurocomputers, filters, and means of clock distribution in microprocessors. In this paper, our purpose is to confirm that ring coupled MEMS oscillators are synchronized with different phase relationships.
