摘要:
An elastic wave filter has first, second, and third IDT electrodes whose wiring electrodes are connected to unbalanced signal terminal; fourth IDT electrode disposed between the first and second IDT electrodes; fifth IDT electrode disposed between the second and third IDT electrodes; and first and second balanced signal terminals connected to the wiring electrodes of fourth and fifth IDT electrodes, respectively. The ground electrodes of the first through fifth IDT electrodes are connected to the ground. Signals in opposite phase and in phase with a signal input to unbalanced signal terminal are output from first and second balanced signal terminals, respectively. The wiring electrodes of second and third IDT electrodes are adjacent to the ground electrode of fifth IDT electrode. The wiring electrode of one of first and second IDT electrodes is adjacent to the wiring electrode of fourth IDT electrode. The ground electrode of the other is adjacent to the ground electrode of fourth IDT electrode. This configuration can suppress spuriousness in the bandpass.

An acoustic wave resonance device includes: piezoelectric substrate (1), first acoustic wave resonator (100) provided on an upper surface of piezoelectric substrate (1) and including first interdigital transducer electrode (110), and second acoustic wave resonator (200) provided on piezoelectric substrate (1) and including second interdigital transducer electrode (210). First acoustic wave resonator (100) and second acoustic wave resonator (200) are connected to each other. An overlap width of a plurality of first comb-shaped electrodes (112) forming first acoustic wave resonator (100) is larger than an overlap width of a plurality of second comb-shaped electrodes (212) forming second acoustic wave resonator (200). With such a configuration, frequencies in which a transverse mode spurious response is generated can be distributed and loss can be reduced.
摘要:
An object of the present invention is to improve the passing characteristic at high temperature in a ladder-type elastic wave filter and a duplexer including the filter. The ladder-type elastic wave filter of the present invention includes a piezoelectric substrate, a first series elastic-wave resonator formed on the piezoelectric substrate and connected in series between the input and output terminals of the filter, a parallel elastic-wave resonator formed on the piezoelectric substrate and connected in parallel between the series elastic-wave resonator and the ground terminal, and a dielectric film formed on the piezoelectric substrate so as to cover the first series elastic-wave resonator. The piezoelectric substrate is formed of a material with a negative temperature coefficient. The dielectric film is formed of a material with a positive temperature coefficient and its film thickness is formed thicker than that with which the frequency-temperature coefficient of the first series elastic-wave resonator becomes 0.

A surface acoustic wave (SAW) filter device includes an input port for receiving an unbalanced signal, a pair of input/output ports, a first SAW filter for receiving the unbalanced signal from the input port and outputting balanced signals to the pair of input/output ports, a second SAW filter for receiving the balanced signals output from the pair of input/output ports and outputting balanced signals, and a pair of output ports for outputting the balanced signals output from the second SAW filter. The first SAW filter includes a first longitudinally-coupled SAW resonator having a first unbalanced signal input port and first and second balanced signal output ports, and a second longitudinally-coupled SAW resonator having a second unbalanced signal input port and third and fourth balanced signal output port. The first and second unbalanced signal input ports are electrically connected to the input port. The first and third balanced signal output ports both are electrically connected to one of the pair of input/output ports. The second and fourth balanced signal output ports both are electrically connected to another of the pair of input/output ports. This SAW filter device can suppress spurious and has a small insertion loss.
摘要:
An acoustic wave duplexer includes a piezoelectric substrate, a first filter and a second filter whose center frequency is higher than that of the first filter, the first and second filters being provided on the piezoelectric substrate. The first filter is structured as a ladder type. A resonator positioned nearest to an antenna terminal out of series-arm resonators is designated as a first resonator. A pitch of a comb-shaped electrode structuring the first resonator is set such that a bulk wave emission frequency of the first resonator becomes higher than a passband of the second filter.
摘要:
The antenna sharing device has a first elastic-wave filter for passing signals of a first frequency passband and a second elastic-wave filter for passing signals of a second frequency passband higher than the first frequency passband. The first elastic-wave filter is a ladder-type filter including a first series resonator and a second series resonator having an antiresonant frequency point higher than that of the first series resonator. The first series resonator has a first IDT electrode and a first dielectric film covering the electrode. The second series resonator has a second IDT electrode and a second dielectric film covering the electrode. The first and the second dielectric films have a first projection and a second projection, respectively, so as to be formed above the electrode fingers of each IDT electrode. The cross-sectional area of the first projection of the first series resonator is larger than that of the second projection of the second series resonator in the excitation direction of the elastic wave. The structure satisfies both of steepness in a crossband and low loss in a passband.

摘要:
An elastic wave device has a convex portion on the top face of a first dielectric layer over an IDT electrode when the elastic wave device has a structure of a boundary wave device in which a film thickness of a second dielectric layer is not less than 1.6 times as much as a pitch width of the IDT electrode. This convex portion increases an electromechanical coupling coefficient of SH wave that is the major wave. Accordingly, good filter characteristics can be easily achieved.
