In this resonator 10, electrode 16 plays the effect of earth terminal.And, in the present embodiment, two I/ O ends 22 and 24 are arranged: electrode part 14a on electrode 14 peripheries and 14c are connected to each other to as an I/O end 22, and the electrode part 14b of electrode 14 centre is used as another I/O end 24.For this structure, a signal is input to an I/O end 22, on substrate 12, produce extensional vibration, from the consequential signal of another I/O end 24 outputs corresponding to resonance frequency.
Shown in Fig. 2 and 3, above-mentioned piezo-electric resonator 10 can use in three end piezoelectric parts.Piezoelectric part represents that with 30 it has an insulating substrate 32.Form two pattern electrodes 34 and 36 from vertical substrate 32 two ends to central authorities on the first surface of substrate 32, electrode 34 and 36 toward each other.Also electrode 34 and 36 is arranged to extend to second surface from the side of substrate 32, two I/ O lead ends 38 and 40 are connected respectively to pattern electrodes 34 and 36.
On the first surface of insulating substrate 32, except the gap between relative pattern electrodes 34 and 36 forms insulating barrier 42.Then piezo-electric resonator 10 is installed on electrode 34 and 36 by supporter 44.As shown in Figure 4, supporter 44 is made up of three parts 46,48 and 50, and these three parts are attached to respectively on electrode part 14a, 14b and the 14c in the center of vertical substrate 12.Support that part 46 and 50 is fixed on peripheral electrode part 14a and the 14c, near first end of vertical substrate 12, it has current-carrying part 46b and 50a, has insulated part 46b and 50b near second end of substrate 12.On the contrary, support that part 48 is attached on the contre electrode part 14b, have a current-carrying part 48a, near first end, have insulated part 48b at the second end place near vertical substrate 12.Therefore, peripheral electrode part 14a and 14c and contre electrode part 14b are in the vertical conducting with substrate 12 of the different piece of supporter 44.
Utilize the supporter 44 of said structure, peripheral electrode part 14a and 14c are electrically connected on the pattern electrodes 34, and contre electrode part 14b is electrically connected on another pattern electrodes 36.Therefore, electrode part 14a and 14c are electrically connected on the I/O lead end 38, and electrode part 14b is electrically connected on another I/O lead end 40.
And lead-in wire 52 is connected to the middle body of electrode 16, and metal cap 54 covers on piezo-electric resonator 10.Therefore, can be bonded to each other lead-in wire 52 and metal cap 54 with conducting resinl 56.Moreover, ground lead end 58 is connected on the metal cap 54, be electrically connected thereby between the electrode 16 of resonator 10 and ground lead end 58, set up.Insulating barrier 42 a pattern electrodes 34 and 36 and metal cap 54 electric insulations are set.Then shell 60 is covered insulating substrate 32 and metal cap 54 outsides.Can produce piezoelectric part 30 by this way.
In above-mentioned piezoelectric part 30, the middle body of resonator 10 is supported by supporter 44 as node, otherwise can stop the extensional vibration of piezoelectric substrate 12, thereby obtains good characteristic.As shown in Figure 4, form two grooves 62 in resonator 10, it extends along the width of substrate 12, and is positioned at from the sixth of the length of the whole substrate 12 of the inward at both ends of vertical substrate 12.It is in order to prevent to produce the trivalent high order harmonic component that these grooves 62 are set.
If external impact acts on this resonator 10, on substrate 12, may produce bending as shown in Figure 5, the center line expansion substrate 12 that it extends with respect to substrate longitudinally 12 unfriendly a side, the compression opposite side.This can produce positive charge at the expansion of substrate 12, and produces negative electrical charge at compression section.Yet, because external electrode part 14a and 14c are connected to each other, so can eliminate these positive charges and negative electrical charge.And, at contre electrode part 14b, can offset at the opposite polarity electric charge that each side of the center line of substrate 12 produces, otherwise the undesired output that I/ O end 22 or 24 output external impact are produced.
On the other hand, as shown in Figure 6, can be divided into three electrode part 14a, 14b, 14c and 16a, 16b, 16c respectively being arranged on substrate 12 double-edged electrodes 14 and 16.In this case, the contre electrode part 14b of electrode 14 can be used as an I/O end 22, and peripheral electrode part 14a and 14c can be connected on the contre electrode part 16b and be used for ground connection.And, can be coupled peripheral electrode part 16a and 16c each other, as another I/O end 24.In this resonator 10 and resonator shown in Figure 1, because substrate 12 bendings can be offset at peripheral electrode part 14a and 14c and the electric charge that produces in contre electrode part 14b.Equally, also can offset at peripheral electrode part 16a and 16c and the electric charge that in contre electrode part 16b, produces.This can prevent that I/ O end 22 or 24 outputs are because the undesired signal that external impact causes.
In the piezo-electric resonator 10 of structure as mentioned above, can reduce because the undesired signal that external impact produces.Therefore, this resonator 10 is applied to the wireless intermediate-frequency filter of AM, can reduces because the noise output that external impact produces loud speaker.In addition, Fig. 7,8,9 and 10 illustrates, and in the resonant frequency range of the resonator 10 of the above-mentioned type, attenuation amplitude is substantially equal to traditional piezo-electric resonator, can obtain the less response of looking genuine in resonator 10.Fig. 7 and Fig. 8 show the characteristic of piezo-electric resonator shown in Figure 1 10, and Fig. 9 and Figure 10 show the characteristic of resonator shown in Figure 6 10.Fig. 8 and 10 illustrates in greater detail respectively according to the performance plot of Fig. 6 and Fig. 9 resonance frequency and the characteristic of frequency on every side thereof through amplifying.

In filter 70, and in single resonance device 10, can forbid exporting because the undesired signal that external impact produces to resonator 10 roles by being similar to above-mentioned resonator of two-stage 10.
On the other hand, can use supporter 44 as shown in Figure 4, can be installed to piezo-electric resonator 10 on the insulating substrate 72 like this.In this case, as shown in figure 12, the input and output pattern electrodes 74 of formation and 76 extends to central authorities from the both sides of substrate 72.And public electrode 88 is arranged to respect to input and output pattern electrodes 74 and 76.Form ground connection pattern electrodes 78 from one side of substrate 72 to its relative one side.
Then, a piezo-electric resonator 10 is installed between tablet pattern electrode 74 and the public electrode 88 by supporter 44, and another piezo-electric resonator 10 is fixed between output pattern electrode 76 and the public electrode 88 by another supporter 44.This can also can be connected to the peripheral electrode part 14a of resonator 10 and 14c on input and output pattern electrodes 74 and 76 by public electrode 88 respectively the contre electrode part 14b of two resonators 10.And, with lead-in wire the electrode 16 of each resonator 10 is connected on the ground connection pattern electrodes 78.Then metal cap 86 being striden across insulating barrier 90 covers on substrate 72.In above-mentioned filter 70, can support with supporter 44 as the middle body of the resonator 10 of node, and the other parts of resonator 10 and substrate 72 separate, otherwise will influence the extensional vibration of resonator 10, thereby realize good characteristic.
As shown in figure 13, above-mentioned filter 70 can also improve, and can be used in the first order to conventional piezoelectric resonator 1, and resonator 10 of the present invention only is used for final stage.In such filter 70, even 1 output of the resonator of the first order is because the undesired signal that external impact produces, but it still can prevent 76 outputs of output pattern electrode, and this is because the resonance frequency of sort signal is different with the resonance frequency of the resonator 10 of final stage.Therefore, use piezo-electric resonator 10 of the present invention can realize a kind of like this filter,, still can avoid exporting undesired signal even external impact is arranged.
On the other hand, as shown in figure 14, can also following manner improve filter 70.Can be used in the first order to the piezo-electric resonator 10 that on the tow sides of substrate 12, has electrode part separately, and the resonator 10 that only has electrode part separately on a surface of substrate 12 is used in final stage.At such filter 70 and in above-mentioned filter,, export undesired signal thereby stop because the electric charge that external impact produces can be offset.Should be noted that two class resonators 10 shown in Figure 14 can exchange simply between the first order and final stage.
For the characteristic of more above-mentioned filter 70, measure its frequency characteristic.Figure 15 and 16 illustrates the frequency characteristic of the above-mentioned filter 70 of the resonator 10 that is provided with two interconnection.Figure 17 and 18 shows at input and uses resonator 1, uses the frequency characteristic of the filter 70 of resonator 10 of the present invention at output.And, Figure 19 and 20 shows the resonator 10 that all has electrode part separately at the tow sides of substrate is used in input, and only have on a surface of substrate electrode separately partly resonator 10 be used in the frequency characteristic of the filter 70 of output.In addition, Figure 21 and 22 shows the characteristic of the filter of the interconnection resonator that uses two kinds of traditional types.These figure show that the characteristic of each filter is suitable basically.
Vibration is put on above-mentioned filter to assess.Use the maximum of signal of the filter output of two traditional resonator to be 10.2mV, and use the signal maximum of the filter output of a resonator 10 of the present invention only to be 0.7mV at least.This tests demonstration, can realize the filter of anti-external impact with piezo-electric resonator of the present invention.
In fact, as shown in figure 14, use all to have electrode 14 separately and 16 piezo-electric resonator 10 on two surfaces, produce attenuation pole in resonance frequency both sides shown in Figure 20, thereby obtain desirable filtering characteristic.
In order further to develop the present invention, as shown in figure 23, can be applied to the AM receiving circuit to above-mentioned piezo-electric resonator 10 or filter 70.AM receiving circuit 100 has an antenna 102.Antenna 102 is connected to mixting circuit 104, and further is connected to local-oscillator circuit 106.In mixting circuit 104, the signal that receives with carry out mixing from the signal of local-oscillator circuit 106.Mixting circuit 104 is couple on the intermediate-frequency filter 108.Intermediate-frequency filter 108 is connected to intermediate frequency amplifier circuit 110, and it further is coupled to detecting circuit 112.Detecting circuit 112 is connected to low-frequency amplifier circuit 114, and the latter's output signal drives loud speaker 116.Can be used in above-mentioned piezo-electric resonator 10 or filter 70 in the intermediate-frequency filter 108 of AM receiving circuit 100.
As mentioned above, in mixting circuit 104, the signal of signal that receives and local-oscillator circuit 106 is carried out mixing, produce an intermediate-freuqncy signal, its frequency is the difference between the signal that these machines produce in the signal that receives and the local-oscillator circuit 106.Only take out intermediate-freuqncy signal by intermediate-frequency filter 108 then.In Japan, the frequency of this signal is decided to be 455kHz.The intermediate-freuqncy signal that contains the modulation signal of the radio wave that main expression receives can be carried out detection with detecting circuit 112, takes out modulation signal.From detecting circuit 112 output low frequency restituted signals, in low-frequency amplifier circuit 114, amplify then.Output signal by circuit 114 drives loud speaker 116, makes its sounding.
In the intermediate-frequency filter 108 of the as above AM receiving circuit 100 of structure, piezo-electric resonator 10 of the present invention or filter 70 can be used to suppress because the output of the undesired signal that external impact produces also can suppress the wide response of looking genuine.Therefore, can block the undesired signal of telecommunication of these circuit 100 outputs, thereby reduce the noise of loud speaker 116.
In above-mentioned piezo-electric resonator 10, can adopt any one method of cutting apart electrode 14, can both eliminate opposite polarity electric charge that in peripheral part 14a and 14c, produces and the electric charge that in middle body 14b, produces.That is, to have area identical be necessary in the electric charge place that the area of peripheral part 14a and 14c is equal to each other and middle body 14b may produce opposite polarity.This is divided into the part that the center line with respect to substrate 12 is mutually symmetrical to electrode 14 with regard to requiring, but divided portion needn't be parallel to each other.In addition, can on electrode 14, slot and cut apart, replace and on the whole surface of planar substrate 12, form an electrode earlier, then, by only producing electrode 14 or 16 such as methods such as etchings.
And, can be divided into electrode 14 and 16 more than three parts, for example four or five parts.If as shown in figure 24 electrode 14 is divided into four part 14a to 14d, then can connects into peripheral electrode part 14a and 14d as an I/O end 22, and interior electrode part 14b and 14c are coupled to as another I/O end 24.In this case, only to be mutually symmetrical be necessary to the center line that extends with respect to piezoelectric substrate longitudinally 12 of peripheral part 14a and 14d, and interior electrode part 14b and 14c needn't form around center line and be mutually symmetrical.Can be coupled these parts 14b and 14c each other, to eliminate the opposite polarity electric charge that produces owing to external impact.
As shown in figure 25, also can be divided into five part 14a to 14e to electrode 14.In this variation, can connect into peripheral part 14a and 14e as an I/O end 22, and three interior electrode part 14b, 14c and 14d connected into the effect of another I/O end 24.In this case, only to be mutually symmetrical be necessary to the center line that extends with respect to substrate longitudinally 12 of peripheral part 14a and 14e, and interior electrode part 14b, 14c and 14d needn't be mutually symmetrical around center line. Connection electrode part 14b, 14c and 14d can offset because the opposite polarity electric charge that external impact produces.
In above-mentioned variation, as shown in figure 26, can be coupled to middle body 14c to peripheral part 14a and 14e, as an I/O end 22.Rest parts 14b and 14d can connect into as another I/O end 24.In this method of attachment, require divided portion to be mutually symmetrical, to eliminate the opposite polarity electric charge that produces owing to external impact with respect to the center line of substrate 12 extensions longitudinally.
In the above-mentioned example that electrode is divided into more than three parts, if the gross area of the electrode part that is connected to an I/O end 22 is made the gross area of the electrode part that equals to be coupled to another I/O end 24 substantially, then the electric capacity between I/O end 22 and the electrode 16 can and the other end 24 and electrode 16 between electric capacity identical.Therefore, can be in I/O end 22 or 24 any as input or output, just draw the characteristic identical with resonator 10.In addition, the width of all electrode parts equates to avoid producing the minimum part of width, thereby prevents to damage piezoelectric substrate and electrode during with small pieces micromachined resonator 10.
In this form, the electrode 14 of piezo-electric resonator 10 can be divided into more than three parts, in this case, can offset because the electric charge that external impact produces with the suitable electrode part method of attachment that separates.Can use a kind of suitable dividing method according to selected method of attachment, promptly whether divided portion is mutually symmetrical with respect to center line.No matter use which kind of method, all require two peripheral parts to be mutually symmetrical around the center line of substrate 12.
