Abstract :
A review of programmable surface acoustic wave filters is presented. The elementary theory, fabrication procedures, and device performance are described in light of recent technological advances. Both hybrid and monolithic structures are considered. The relative advantages of programming techniques which utilize diode switching are compared to those that make use of solid-state, three-terminal, and acoustic wave detectors.
