Surface acoustic wave (SAW) and bulk acoustic wave (BAW) duplexers of assessed quality - Part 2: Guidelines for the use (IEC 62604-2:2022)

This part of IEC 62604 applies to duplexers which can separate receiving signals from
transmitting signals and are key components for two-way radio communications, and which are
generally used in mobile phone systems compliant with CDMA systems such as N-CDMA in
second generation mobile telecommunication systems (2G), W-CDMA / UMTS (3G) or LTE (4G).
These guidelines draw attention to some fundamental questions about the theory of SAW and
BAW duplexers and how to use them, which will be considered by the user before he places an
order for SAW and BAW duplexers for a new application. Such a procedure will be the user’s
insurance against unsatisfactory performance. Because SAW and BAW duplexers have very
similar performance for the usage, it is useful and convenient for users that both duplexers are
described in one standard.

Duplexeurs à ondes acoustiques de surface (oas) et à ondes acoustiques de volume (oav) sous assurance de la qualité - Partie 2 : Lignes directrices d’utilisation (IEC 62604-2:2022)

IEC 62604-2:2022 est disponible sous forme de IEC 62604-2:2022 RLV qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente.

L’IEC 62604-2:2022 s’applique aux duplexeurs qui peuvent séparer les signaux en réception des signaux en émission et constituent des composants essentiels pour les radiocommunications bilatérales. Ils sont généralement utilisés dans les systèmes de téléphonie mobile conformes aux systèmes d’accès multiple par répartition en code (AMRC) comme les systèmes N-CDMA des systèmes de télécommunication mobile de seconde génération (2G), les systèmes W-CDMA/UMTS (3G) ou les systèmes LTE (4G). Les présentes lignes directrices attirent l’attention sur certaines des questions fondamentales concernant la théorie des duplexeurs à OAS et à OAV, et leurs modalités d’utilisation, qui sont à prendre en considération par l’utilisateur avant de commander un duplexeur à OAS ou à OAV pour une nouvelle application. Ainsi, l’utilisateur évite d’être confronté à des performances non satisfaisantes. Dans la mesure où les duplexeurs à OAS et à OAV présentent des performances très similaires dans leur utilisation, il est utile et pratique pour les utilisateurs que les deux types soient décrits dans une seule norme. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l’édition précédente:
- ajout du terme "isolation de polarisation croisée" à l’Article 3;
- description des multiplexeurs.

SURFACE ACOUSTIC WAVE (SAW) AND BULK
ACOUSTIC WAVE (BAW) DUPLEXERS
OF ASSESSED QUALITY –

Part 2: Guidelines for the use

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
IEC 62604-2 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 49: Piezoelectric, dielectric and
electrostatic devices and associated materials for frequency control, selection and detection. It
is an International Standard.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2017. This edition
constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) the term "cross-isolation" has been added to Clause 3;
b) multiplexers are described.
NOTE In this document, SAW and BAW duplexers are treated simultaneously because both duplexers are used in
the same manner, especially in mobile phone systems and have the same requirements of characteristics, test
method and so on.

INTRODUCTION
While in 2G systems mainly dielectric duplexers have been used, the ongoing miniaturization
in 3G and 4G mobile communication systems promoted the development and application of
acoustic wave duplexers due to their small size, light weight and good electrical performance.
While standard surface acoustic wave (SAW) duplexers have been employed for applications
with moderate requirements regarding the steepness of individual filters, applications with
narrow duplex gap (e.g. Bands 2, 3, 8, 25), i.e., the frequency gap between receiving and
transmitting bands, require the application of temperature-compensated (TC) SAW or bulk
acoustic wave (BAW) technology, because of their better temperature characteristics and
resonator Q-factors.
Standard specifications, such as those of IEC, of which these guidelines form a part, and
national specifications or detail specifications issued by manufacturers will define the available
combinations of centre frequency, pass bandwidth and insertion attenuation for each sort of
transmitting and receiving filters and the isolation level between transmitter and receiver ports,
etc. These specifications are compiled to include a wide range of SAW and BAW duplexers with
standardized performances. It cannot be over-emphasized that the user should, wherever
possible, select his duplexers from these specifications, when available, even if it can lead to
making small modifications to his circuit to enable the use of standard duplexers. This applies
particularly to the selection of the nominal frequency band.

4 Technical considerations
It is of prime interest to a user that the duplexer characteristics should satisfy particular
specifications. The selection of the front-end circuits in user equipment and SAW and BAW
duplexers to meet such specifications should be a matter of agreement between the user and
the manufacturer.
Duplexer characteristics are usually expressed in terms of centre frequency, pass bandwidth and
insertion attenuation for each of transmitting and receiving filter parts in the duplexer and
isolation level between the transmitter and receiver ports. Since the SAW and BAW duplexer is
used in RF front-end of the user equipment, lower insertion attenuation, higher
isolation/rejection level, stronger power durability and smaller/thinner package dimensions are
strictly required.
5 Fundamentals of SAW and BAW duplexers
5.1 Basic function
5.1.1 General
Duplexers are necessary for frequency division duplex (FDD) equipment to receive and transmit
signals simultaneously. Duplexers are 3-port devices which consist of an antenna port, a
transmitter port (TX port) and a receiver port (RX port), as shown in Figure 1. The duplexer has
three basic functions:
• to transfer the transmitting signal from the TX port to the antenna port;
• to transfer the receiving signal from the antenna port to the RX port;
• to prevent transfer of the transmitting signal and noise from the TX port to the RX port.
The transmitting and the receiving frequencies are determined corresponding to each mobile
communication system. For example, Table 1 shows typical allocated frequency bands for LTE.

receiving frequency respectively.
5.1.2 TX filter response (filter response from TX port to antenna port)
Figure 2 shows an example of frequency characteristics of the TX filter. The required frequency
characteristics are low insertion attenuation in the transmitting frequency band (f ), high
T
insertion attenuation in the receiving frequency band (f ) and good impedance matching.

5.1.4 Isolation (isolation from TX port to RX port)
Figure 4 shows an example of isolation characteristics. One of the important functions for
duplexers is isolation characteristics, which show the frequency dependence of the leakage
power from the TX port to the RX port.

5.2 Basic structure
Duplexers are 3-port devices/modules, which enable to transmit and receive signals
simultaneously through a common antenna. A basic structure of duplexers is shown in Figure 5.
SAW and BAW duplexers consist of a transmitter (TX) part and a receiver (RX) part. These two
parts, which can add a phase shifter, are connected to an antenna port. The phase shifter is
utilized to prevent the interaction between the filters. In Figure 5, Z and Z correspond to the
t r
impedance of the TX and RX part at the antenna port side, whereas Z is the impedance of the
o
antenna port. The following conditions shall be fulfilled to achieve the duplexer functions.
