<p>A ceramic bandpass filter (10) that has transmission zeroes above the passband is accomplished without using the top patterning by a block structure that includes a localized mesa (26) formed at the top end of the block that provides increased capacitive coupling between the open circuits and the resonators (30, 32, and 34). This increased top end capacitance provided by the mesa (26) can provide high end or high side transmission zeroes to the characteristic transfer function of the filter.</p> |
