Abstract
We applied a filip-chip-bonding technique to GHz-band SAW filters. The SAW filters mounted by the stud-bump-bonding (SBB) technique which is a kind of flip-chip-bonding technique showed almost the same frequenc y characteristics as those mounted by the conventional wire-bonding te chnique at 1.5 GHz. The SAW filter configuration, fabrication process using the SBB, and its electrical characteristics are described and di scussed. The SBB technique has a lot of potential to reduce the size a nd weight even above GHz frequencies.
