Abstract

The invention relates to MEMS resonators. In one embodiment, an integrated resonator and sensor device includes a micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) resonator, and an anchor portion coupled to the MEMS resonator and configured to allow resonance of the MEMS resonator in a first plane of motion and movement of the MEMS resonator in a second plane of motion. In other embodiments, additional apparatuses, devices, systems and methods are disclosed.
