An aperture pattern board is provided between the shielding board and a piezoelectric resonator. On the aperture pattern board, combinations of apertures are provided which correspond to the A electrodes exposed through the window on the shielding board at one time. After measuring the frequencies for respective elements and measuring the variations from the target frequency, the suitable pattern of apertures is selected from the aperture pattern board according to the amount of variations, and then the frequency control is carried out only on the elements selected through the apertures.
