1)Temperature dependence of fC: fC(TA) = fC(T0) (1 + TCf(TA – T0)2)
2) Impedance for passband matching bases on an ideal, perfect matching of the SAW filter to
source- and to load impedance (here 50 Ohm). After the SAW filter is removed and input imped-
ance into the input matching / output matching network is calculated.
The conjugate complex value of these characteristic impedances are the input and output imped-
ances for flat passband. For more details, we refer to EPCOS application note #4.
