Abstract
An improved miniaturized electro-acoustic surface-wave filter device is disclosed having broad, deep, adjacent channel stopbands from uniform aperture transducers. The device includes two spaced, interdigital electrode transducer structures fabricated on one surface of a piezoelectric substrate. Each electrode structure includes a central finger group and a number of flanking finger groups spaced from the central finger group at predetermined temporal locations. The strengths of the flanking groups are adjusted by controlling the number of finger pairs within a group, the overlap length of the fingers, and the strip/gap ratio of the fingers. Aperture uniformity is maintained in reduced overlap flanking groups through the series weighting technique. The subject device is particularly useful for channel selection in the IF portion of a television receiver.
