The present invention relates to a surface acoustic wave filter used in frequency filter of portable telephone and other mobile communication device, and is intended to realize a surface acoustic wave filter capable of obtaining a stable filter characteristic even in the event of input of a large signal. The invention includes resonators (5) to (8) formed on a piezoelectric substrate (3), through-holes (12) provided near the resonators (5) to (8), and a conductive material (13) filling up the through-holes (12), in which the through-holes (12) filled up with the conductive material (13) are electrically grounded. In this constitution, by the through-holes (12) provided near the resonators (5) to (8) and filled up with the conductive material (13), the heat generated in the resonators (5) to (8) when a large signal is applied to the input terminal (1) can be released, so that a stable filter characteristic may be maintained if a large signal is applied.

The invention relates to a SAW filter, an antenna duplexer using the same, and a mobile communication terminal using the same, and assures a high withstanding power characteristic and a sufficient isolation between transmitting terminal and receiving terminal. The invention relates to a ladder-type SAW filter composed by alternately connecting a serial branch having at least one SAW resonator connected in series to a signal path, and a parallel branch having at least one SAW resonator connected between the signal path and the ground, in which the sizes of wiring patterns of the parallel branch are smaller than wiring patterns of the serial branch. Therefore, in the case of the serial-branch input type, inductive components of the parallel-branch wiring patterns can be decreased, so that a large reflection coefficient may be obtained in the rejection band.

The present invention relates to a surface acoustic wave (SAW) filter which is used for cellular phones and other mobile communication equipment. The object of the present invention is to realize a SAW filter of which attenuation characteristics and pass characteristics can be set arbitrarily. The SAW filter of the present invention comprises comb-shaped electrodes facing each other disposed on the same piezoelectric substrate, at least two resonators with an input and output terminals, and an equivalent transmission line which is connected between an output terminal of a first resonator and an input terminal of a second resonator. The phase of the transmission line can be adjusted from 5 degrees to 175 degrees arbitrarily at the series resonance frequency of the resonators. This structure realizes a band-stop filter or a band-pass filter whose attenuation characteristics and pass characteristics can be set arbitrarily.

A small-sized multi-frequency antenna duplexer using surface acoustic wave filters to be applicable to a plurality of frequencies. This antenna duplexer includes two surface acoustic wave (SAW) filters for transmission and reception having passing bands of mutually different frequencies, a phase shift substrate, and a package for accommodating them. The passing band of each antenna duplexer is mutually different from other's passing band. This multi-frequency antenna duplexer includes a plurality of antenna duplexers. In one package, transmitter surface acoustic wave filters, receiver surface acoustic filters, and phase shift substrates are mounted. Thus, the multi-frequency antenna duplexer are reduced in size.

In a surface acoustic wave (SAW) filter including a substrate and an electrode formed on the substrate, the electrode includes a base layer, a first metal layer made of a metal consisting of Al or consisting mainly of Al, and having a given orientation relative to the substrate, a second layer for preventing the first metal layer from migration of Al atoms occurring in vertical to the substrate, and a third layer for adjusting a thickness of the layer. In this SAW filter having an arbitrary layer thickness, the layer hardly causes grain boundary diffusion, and grains of the layer can be made fine for effective resistance to stress. Thus, in this SAW filter, the migration of the Al atoms of the electrode that is associated with the SAW propagation-induced stress imposed on the electrode is inhibited. Accordingly, the filter exhibits excellent resistance against electric power.
摘要:
A SAW resonator includes an IDT electrode formed on a piezoelectric substrate and reflector electrodes disposed on both sides of the IDT electrode. The IDT electrode includes first finger-electrodes, second finger-electrodes and strip-line electrodes. The first and the second finger-electrodes do not overlap with each other but are acoustically coupled together by the strip-line electrodes. This acoustic coupling by the strip-line electrodes eliminates the need for a common bus-bar electrode, so that the loss caused by the resistance of the common bus-bar electrode can be reduced, and the SAW resonator can be downsized.
