SAW devices and their wireless communications applications

Due to the superior performance of SAW filters, combined with additional features, e.g., impedance transformation, balun functionality, and integration of two or even three filter functions into one package, SAW filters have become the key components in mobile communication and multimedia applications. More cost-effective and miniaturized designs are effectively supported by reducing overall component count and PCB space used.
