Abstract

A surface acoustic wave band-pass filter comprising a piezoelectric substrate having on one surface first and second SAW resonators tuned to the same frequency and coupled together. An input transducer is coupled to the first resonator and an output transducer is coupled to the second resonator. Each resonator is preferably formed by two spaced apart aligned grating reflectors and the two resonators are preferably coupled by an array of discrete parallel metallic strips extending between the two cavity resonators.
