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.

Minimising the crosstalk
For a good ultimate rejection a low crosstalk is necessary. Low crosstalk can be realised with
a good RF layout.
Grounding pins for input transducer are pin 1,3 and for output transducer 5,7. Close to those
pins via holes (through holes) should be placed to achieve a low impedance path to system
ground. If a grounding plane at the top side of the PCB is present, the grounding plane can be
connected to pin 1,3,5,7 at the top side too.
The optimised PCB layout, including matching network for transformation to 50 Ohm, is shown
here.
Optimised PCB layout for SAW filters in QCC8C package, pinning 2,6 (top side, scale 1:1)
The bottom side is a copper plane (system ground area).
For good contact of the upper grounding area with the lower side it is necessary to place
enough via holes.
