Abstract
We present designs for two-track devices, based on the coupled resonator filter (CRF) concept, having either two or three transducers. The tracks are connected in parallel, imposing a frequency shift between them. Examples of this approach are demonstrated in different frequency ranges, both on quartz and - for the first time - on 42°-LiTaO3. We also introduce a parallel-track design with distributed gaps. The device can also operate as a single-to-balanced (BALUN) transformer.
