Experimental data obtained from a fully CMOS compatible CC-Beam MEMS resonator with on-chip capacitive readout and electrostatic excitation in open- and closed-loop configuration is provided. Our results show that the frequency stability is 1.8 ppm in ambient air conditions for an integration time of 40ms, and 0.63 ppm in vacuum, being only two times larger than the ultimate limit set by the thermomechanical vibrations.
