While the RF BAW filters have various specifications, many of them can be classifie

21、d within a few fundamental categories. Standard specifications, given in IEC 62575, and national specifications or detail specifi-cations issued by manufacturers, define the available combinations of nominal frequency, pass bandwidth, ripple, shape factor, terminating impedance, etc. These specifica

22、tions are compiled to include a wide range of RF BAW filters with standardized performances. It cannot be over-emphasized that the user should, wherever possible, select his RF BAW filters from these specifications, when available, even if it may lead to making small modifications to his circuit to

23、enable standard filters to be used. This applies particularly to the selection of the nominal frequency. This standard has been compiled in response to a generally expressed desire on the part of both users and manufacturers for guidance on the use of RF BAW filters, so that the filters may be used

24、to their best advantage. To this end, general and fundamental characteristics have been explained in this part of IEC 62575. It is not the aim of this standard to explain theory, nor to attempt to cover all the eventualities which may arise in practical circumstances. This standard draws attention t

25、o some of the more fundamental questions, which should be considered by the user before he places an order for an RF BAW filter for a new application. Such a procedure will be the users insurance against unsatisfactory performance. BS EN 62575-2:2012 6 62575-2 IEC:2012 RADIO FREQUENCY (RF) BULK ACOU

This part of IEC 62575 includes various kinds of filter configurations, of which the operating frequency range is from approximately 500 MHz to 10 GHz and the relative bandwidth is about 1 % to 5 % of the centre frequency. 2 Normative referenc

29、. 3 Technical considerations It is of prime interest to a user that the filter characteristics should satisfy a particular specification. The selection of tuning networks and RF BAW filters to meet that specification should be a matter of agreement between user and manufacturer. Filter characteristi

30、cs are usually expressed in terms of insertion attenuation as a function of frequency, as shown in Figure 1. A standard method for measuring insertion attenuation is described in IEC 60862-1:2003, 5.5.2. Insertion attenuation characteristics are further specified by nominal frequency, minimum insert

31、ion attenuation or maximum insertion attenuation, pass-band ripple and shape factor. The specification is to be satisfied between the lowest and highest temperatures of the specified operating temperature range and before and after environmental tests. _ 1This standard (under consideration) is expec

RF B

33、AW filters add new features and applications to the field of surface acoustic wave (SAW) filters and dielectric resonator filters. Nowadays, RF BAW filters with low insertion attenuation are widely used in various applications in the gigahertz range. RF BAW filters are becoming rapidly popular as mi

34、niature and low insertion attenuation filters for mobile communication application. RF BAW resonator filters can realize low insertion attenuation easily and of a smaller size than that of the RF SAW filters with the same bandwidth. Their feasible bandwidth is, however, limited by employing piezoele

35、ctric materials, design methods and so on. It is desirable for users to understand these factors for RF BAW resonator filters. This standard explains the principles and characteristics of RF BAW resonator filters. RF BAW filters usually employ a filter configuration called the ladder filter, which i

36、s composed of multiple RF BAW resonators. They are classified into two types: film bulk acoustic resonators and solidly mounted resonators. In Figure 2, the applicable frequency range and relative bandwidth of the RF BAW filters are shown in comparison with those of ceramic, crystal, dielectric, hel

38、IEC:2012 Figure 2 Applicable range of frequency and relative bandwidth of the RF BAW filter and the other filters 4.2 Fundamentals of RF BAW resonators a) Acoustic resonance When a mechanical impact is applied to a solid surface, acoustic waves are generated, and a portion of their energy is transmi

39、tted by propagation of the acoustic waves in the bulk. This type of wave is called the bulk acoustic wave (BAW). Remaining energy may be transferred by acoustic waves propagating along the surface. This type of wave is called the surface acoustic wave (SAW). There are two types of BAWs: the longitud

40、inal or dilatational BAW, with the displacement toward the propagation direction, and the transverse or shear BAW, with the displacement normal to the propagation direction. Acoustic wave velocities in solids are a few hundreds of meters per second to twenty thousands of meters per second. Usually t

41、he longitudinal BAW is few times faster than the shear BAW for a given material and orientation. In the case of acoustic wave propagation in a parallel plate, it is known that the plate causes a mechanical resonance (thickness resonance) when the plate thickness h is half-integer times the wavelengt

42、h of acoustic waves propagating in the plate normal to the plate surface, i.e. 2nh = , where n is an integer and called the order of modes. We obtain mechanical resonance frequencies fras )2(rhnVVf = (1) where V is the acoustic wave velocity. Equation (1) indicates that in addition to a lowest-order

43、 resonance (n=1) called the fundamental resonance, a series of higher-order (n1) ones might be excited. Since frfor n1 will be integer times frfor n=1 in this case, higher-order resonances are often called harmonics or harmonic resonances. When the longitudinal BAW is responsible for the thickness r

44、esonance, it is called the thickness extensional (TE) resonance but when the shear wave is responsible, it is called the thickness shear (TS) resonance.

When wave energy is well confined near the top surface and influence of the back surface is negligible, the waves are called the sur

46、face acoustic waves (SAWs). On the other hand, when wave energy penetrates into the plate and influence of the back surface is not negligible, the waves are called plate waves or Lamb waves. b) Piezoelectric excitation and detection In the case where a piezoelectric plate is sandwiched between two p

47、arallel electrodes (see Figure 3), when an electrical voltage E is applied between two electrodes, mechanical force is generated through the piezoelectricity, and acoustic motion will be induced. On the other hand, electrical charges will be induced to the electrodes by electric fields associated wi

In Figure 4, C0is the clumped capacitance originating from the electrostatic coupling between two electrodes, and C1,L1and R1are the mo

This circuit is called the Butterworth-Van Dyke (BVD) model. Figure 4 BVD model Figure 4 implies that mechanical resonances described above can be excited and detected electrically through the electrodes. Namely, this device serves as an electrical resonator. This type of resonator is called
