We report on (BST) ferroelectric thin film C-band tunable bandpass filters (BPFs) designed and fabricated on magnesium oxide substrates using three different structures: microstrip, coplanar waveguide (CPW), and conductor backed coplanar waveguide (CBCPW). The two-pole filters were designed for a center frequency of 5.89, 5.88, or 5.69 GHz with bandwidths of 3, 9, or 7%, respectively. The BST-based CPW filter offers a higher sensitivity parameter as well as a lower loss parameter compared to the BST tunable two-pole microstrip filter and CBCPW filter. With an applied voltage of 40 V, the tuning range for the BPF with CPW structure was determined to be 170 MHz.
