Abstract
A carrier for mounting a piezoelectric device, e.g., a surface acoustic wave (SAW) device, on a circuit board and a method of mounting a piezoelectric device on a circuit board using such a carrier are disclosed. The carrier includes a carrier bottom, a plurality of metal contacts, and a carrier lid attached to the carrier bottom. The carrier bottom has an opening extending partially through the carrier bottom from a top surface thereof and the opening is configured such that when a piezoelectric device to be mounted in the carrier is inserted into the carrier bottom, the piezoelectric device is at least partially recessed within the carrier bottom. The metal contacts include a cantilevered end configured for electrical connection to a piezoelectric device. The carrier lid is configured to retain a piezoelectric device within the carrier bottom and to apply substantially even pressure across a top surface of a piezoelectric device. The method includes mounting the carrier bottom to the circuit board prior to insertion of the piezoelectric device and connection of the carrier lid.
