ABSTRACT:
A plurality of piezoelectric resonators (10,32,37,57,62,66,79,88,93) are utilized to form a bandpass filter (31,56,78). The resonators (10,32,37,57,62,66,79,88,93) are connected in parallel to form a plurality of parallel paths between an input (43,73,81) and an output (47,74,82) of the filter (31,56,78). A predetermined number of the piezoelectric resonators (10,32,37,57,62,66,79,88,93) provide a phase shift of approximately 180 degrees. Each parallel path has a passband and center frequency that is displaced from the passband and center frequency of other paths. Consequently, the passband of each parallel path algebraically sums and creates a filter passband that is wider than the passband of each of the filter's individual parallel paths.
