An Introduction to the Design of Surface Acoustic Wave Devices.

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA073425 | Open PDF

Abstract:

Surface acoustic wave devices such as bandpass filters, matched filters and oscillators are in general one or two orders of magnitude smaller than their conventional electromagnetic counterparts and in many applications provide superior performance. This note provides a brief introduction to the fundamental properties of surface acoustic waves and some of the more common surface acoustic wave devices. The practical considerations for surface acoustic wave device design are discussed and some results are given. Author
