Problems solved by technology

[0025] Therefore, if the conductive layer 59 and the ground electrode of the package 57 are connected through wiring, although the capacitive coupling between the input and output electrode parts of each filter can be reduced to a certain extent, this solution cannot be sufficient. Improve insulation properties
[0026] In addition, in the case of mounting (flip-chip mounting) with the surface on which the IDT electrodes of the piezoelectric substrate is formed to face the main surface of the package 57 with a vibration space secured therebetween, miniaturization is advantageous, but due to pressure The conductor layer 59 on the back side of the electrical substrate is spatially separated from the main surface of the package 57 at ground potential, therefore, in order to realize the grounding from the conductor layer 59 to the ground electrode on the main surface of the package 57, it is also necessary Additional process, so there is a problem of increased manufacturing cost

[0231] In this embodiment, except that the ring conductor 7 is not provided in the surface acoustic wave element 1, the others are the same as figure 1 Same, but seal construction is different.

[0232] In this example, if Figure 21 As shown in the cross-sectional view, instead of using the annular conductor 7, a sealing structure made of an annular insulator 41 and a covering member 42 for partial protection of the IDT electrode 3 is used to protect the IDT electrode 3, and the surrounding area is covered with an outer coating resin. 34 for protection, providing through-holes reaching from the upper surface of the exterior resin 34 to the input electrode part 5, the output electrode part 6 and the ground electrode part (not shown in the figure), and filling the conductive posts 43 therein as connection electrodes. By adopting such a structure, it is possible to obtain a surface acoustic wave device 40 which is smaller than the case of using the loop conductor 7 .

Abstract

An IDT electrode 3 , and an input electrode section 5 and an output electrode section 6 each connecting with the IDT electrode 3 are formed in a filter region on one main surface of a piezoelectric substrate 2 , and a semiconductor layer 22 is formed on the other main surface opposite to the one main surface of the piezoelectric substrate 2 . The semiconductor layer 22 makes it possible to prevent pyroelectric destruction in the device manufacturing process as well as to prevent out-of-band attenuation characteristics from being degraded.
