Electrical Connections
This two-port, three-terminal SAW resonator is bidirectional. However, im-
pedances and circuit board parasitics may not be symmetrical, requiring
slightly different oscillator component-matching values.

Electrical Test
This SAW resonator can be used in oscillator or transmitter designs that
require 180° phase shift at resonance in a two-port configuration. One-
port resonators can be simulated, as shown, by connecting pins 1 and 2
together. However, for most low-cost consumer products, this is only
recommended for retrofit applications and not for new designs.
