A circuit simulation compatible surface acoustic wave interdigital transducer macro-model.
In the present work, a surface acoustic wave (SAW) interdigital transducer (IDT) has been modeled as a resistance-inductance-capacitance (RLC) network. The model includes the effects of metal shorting and energy storage at metal discontinuities, as well as an arbitrary polarity sequence of fingers. A C++ program generates the equivalent electrical circuit, which is directly simulated by Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis (SPICE), a popular electrical circuit simulator. Simulations compare well with reported experimental results, validating the proposed model.
