摘要:
A surface acoustic wave device which occupies a small mounting area and has a low profile, yet having an improved reliability, and can be made available at low cost. The surface acoustic wave device comprises a piezoelectric substrate, a function region formed of comb-like electrodes for exciting surface acoustic wave provided on a main surface of the piezoelectric substrate, a space formation member covering the function region, a plurality of bump electrodes provided on a main surface of the piezoelectric substrate and a terminal electrode provided opposed to the main surface of piezoelectric substrate. The bump electrode and the terminal electrode are having a direct electrical connection, and a space between piezoelectric substrate and terminal electrode is filled with resin.

The area of an opening C of a cavity 31 is equal to or greater than the area of a horizontal cross section D of a vibrating section 10. The vibrating section 10 is placed on a support section 20 at a position such that a vertical projection of the vibrating section 10 onto a substrate 30 is accommodated within the opening C of the cavity 31. Moreover, the sum of a vertical thickness t1 of the vibrating section 10 and a vertical thickness t2 of the support section 20 is equal to one wavelength of a resonance frequency fr of an acoustic resonator 1 (one wavelength=t1+t2), while the thickness t1 of the vibrating section 10 and the thickness t2 of the support section 20 are different from each other (t1≠t2). Thus, neither the thickness t1 of the vibrating section 10 nor the thickness t2 of the support section 20 is equal to the half wavelength of the resonance frequency fr.

A sectional area of the beam 103 and a sectional area of the first support portion 104A are substantially equal in a section which is perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the beam 103.
