Description

Integrated BAW filter and method for manufacturing integrated BAW filter
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of semiconductors, and more particularly, to an integrated BAW filter and a method of manufacturing an integrated BAW filter.
Background
In the field of semiconductor processing, the acoustic filter has a relatively high cost performance because the acoustic filter is small in size and can be assembled on a wafer and can meet the requirements of high and low frequencies, and the acoustic filter is widely applied to mobile terminal equipment.
Currently, acoustic filters are largely divided into surface acoustic wave (Surface Acoustic Wave, SAW) filters and bulk acoustic wave (Bulk Acoustic Wave, BAW) filters. BAW filters are different from SAW filters in that acoustic waves in BAW are propagated longitudinally, i.e. in bulk acoustic wave resonators using quartz crystals as the substrate, metal sheets on the upper and lower surfaces of the quartz excite to form acoustic waves, which jump from the top surface to the bottom surface, forming standing waves. Therefore, resonator structures in BAW filters need to be completed on carrier substrates using thin film deposition and micromachining techniques.
In a scenario where a plurality of BAW filter products are required to be used, a method of manufacturing a plurality of BAW filter products and packaging the plurality of BAW filters is generally adopted based on the prior art. Based on this approach, the need to individually perform the stream slice test on the plurality of BAW filter products results in a long development period, and this approach requires the manufacture of the plurality of BAW filters separately, which is prone to resource waste.
