Briefly, in accordance with one embodiment of the invention, a resonator such as an electromechanical resonator may be coupled with a cancellation network to reduce and/or cancel an anti-resonance effect in the resonator, which may be due to, for example, a static capacitance inherent in the resonator. Cancellation of an anti resonance effect from the resonator response may allow a resonance effect of the resonator to be a predominant effect to allow the resonator to be utilized as a bandpass filter having a relatively higher Q, for example in a bandpass sigma-delta modulator that may be utilized in a digital RF receiver.
