Balanced-type surface acoustic wave lattice filter

摘要

A balanced-type surface acoustic wave filter is provided which can attain a balanced-type of high frequency circuit without connecting a balance-unbalanced conversion circuit. A substrate of tantalic acid lithium substrate with 36 degrees rotation, Y cut, and X propagation is used, and aluminium is used for electrode to form resonators. Then, two resonators in a serial arm and two resonators in a parallel arm are connected in the form of symmetry and lattice to form a balanced-type surface acoustic wave filter. In this configuration, antiresonance frequency in the serial arms and resonance frequency in the parallel arms are substantially equal to each other.
