Abstract From the Canadian patent

Abstract of the Disclosure, A SAW device tapped delay line includes an apodized input IDT (inter-digital transducer) and a plurality of substantially identical unapodized output IDTs arranged to receive after delays which, successively increase by an amount T a SAW propagated from the input, IDT. Each output IDT is terminated with a low impedance which is constituted by the low input impedance of a buffer amplifier to, minimize acoustic regeneration by the output IDTs. Grounded dummy fingers with the same metallization ratio as the output IDTs are provided between adjacent output IDTs to provide a constant SAW velocity. The delay line is particularly suited to use in an equalizer of a …
