Reconfigurable filter based on commutation of single frequency resonators
INV-20054 Background Filters for mobile communication systems are currently relying on micro-scale frequency-trimmed piezoelectric resonators. Since modern radios operate in a wide range of the radio frequency (RF) spectrum, hundreds of resonators can be found on a single mobile radio. Frequency trimming often requires technological challenges,...
