Piezoelectric devices and methods for manufacturing the same

摘要

Piezoelectric vibrating devices have piezoelectric vibrating pieces of which the vibration frequency is measurable individually on a wafer scale, without being affected by adjacent piezoelectric devices on the wafer. An exemplary piezoelectric device includes a piezoelectric vibrating piece having excitation electrodes and respective extraction electrodes. The device includes a package base with two connecting electrodes facing the vibrating piece and connected to respective extraction electrodes. Two pairs of mounting terminals are situated on the outer surface of the package base. Also on the outer surface of the package base are two pairs of opposing castellations that are recessed toward the center of the package base. Edge-surface electrodes connect the first and second main surfaces of the base; one pair is connected to the connecting electrodes and the other pair is connected to respective mounting terminals.
