摘要:
A demultiplexer has a common terminal, a transmission terminal, and a reception terminal, and furthermore includes a transmission filter connected between the common terminal and the transmission terminal, a reception filter connected between the common terminal and the reception terminal, and a phase shift circuit connected in series to the reception filter connected between the common terminal and the reception terminal. A node on the line from the phase shift circuit to the common terminal or the transmission terminal, and a node on the line from the phase shift circuit to the reception terminal are coupled via a reactance. Accordingly, it is possible to fundamentally reduce or eliminate the situation in which transmission signals from the transmission filter arrive at the reception circuit, and improve isolation.

A duplexer includes two surface acoustic wave filters that are formed on one substrate, at least one of the two surface acoustic wave filters being a ladder filter. In this duplexer, the positional difference between the centers in the surface acoustic wave propagating direction of each two neighboring comb-like electrodes among comb-like electrodes that form series-arm resonators in the ladder filter is equal to or smaller than a fourth of the length in the propagating direction of the comb-like electrode having the larger number of pairs of electrode fingers of each two neighboring comb-like electrodes.

In a high frequency device, resonators (IDT capacitors) that function as capacitors are included in a lumped constant balun included in a filter or duplexer, and furthermore, the resonance frequency of the IDT capacitors is set higher than the passband frequency of the filter. This improves the capacitor Q value, thus enabling the realization of a low-loss balance filter.

A duplexer includes an unbalanced transmitting filter; a balanced receiving filter; a transmitting port connected to the transmitting filter; and a first receiving port and a second receiving port connected to the receiving filter. The duplexer also includes an electromagnetic coupling portion connected between the transmitting port and the first receiving port and between the transmitting port and the second receiving port. The electromagnetic coupling portion adjusts the phase between electric power that flows from the transmitting port to the first receiving port and electric power that flows from the transmitting port to the second receiving port.
