  • Patent number: 5771556
    Abstract: A method for making an acoustic wave device. The method has steps of providing a substrate suitable for acoustic wave devices and processing the substrate to provide a patterned metallization thereon. The patterned metallization includes an acoustic wave filter pattern. The method also has steps of measuring a sheet resistance associated with the acoustic wave filter pattern, determining a resistance of a test pattern associated with the acoustic wave filter pattern to provide a measured resistance and computing an estimated average linewidth for the acoustic wave filter pattern from the measured resistance and the sheet resistance.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 7, 1995
    Date of Patent: June 30, 1998
    Assignee: Motorola Inc.
