Radio frequency filters. A radio frequency filter includes a substrate attached to a piezoelectric plate, portions of the piezoelectric plate forming a plurality of diaphragms spanning respective cavities in the substrate. A conductor pattern formed on the piezoelectric plate includes a plurality of interdigital transducers (IDTs) of a respective plurality of resonators, interleaved fingers of each IDT disposed on a respective diaphragm of the plurality of diaphragms. The conductor pattern connects the plurality of resonators in a matrix filter circuit including a first sub-filter and a second sub-filter, each sub-filter comprising two or more resonators from the plurality of resonators.

Transversely-excited film bulk acoustic resonator matrix filters

A filter device has a first piezoelectric plate spanning a first and second cavity of a substrate. A first and second interdigital transducer (IDT) are on a front surface of the first piezoelectric plate over the first and second cavity. A dielectric layer is bonded to the first piezoelectric plate and covers the first IDT and second IDT. A second piezoelectric plate is bonded to a front surface of the dielectric layer over the first cavity and the second cavity. A second dielectric layer is formed on a front surface of the second piezoelectric plate over the first cavity but not over the second cavity. The thickness of the dielectric layer, the first piezoelectric plate and the second piezoelectric plate can be selected to tune a shunt resonator over the first cavity and a series resonator over the second cavity to function at 15 GHz.
