    Abstract: A multiplexer includes a common terminal, a first reception output terminal, a second reception output terminal, a first filter that is connected between the common terminal and the first reception output terminal, a second filter that is connected between the common terminal and the second reception output terminal and that has a passband different from that of the first filter, and an impedance matching circuit that is disposed between the common terminal and the second filter. The impedance matching circuit includes a serial arm resonator disposed in series on a path connecting the common terminal to the second filter.

    Abstract: A high-frequency filter (10) includes resonators (21, 31, and 32), an inductor (41), and a switch (51). The resonator (21) is connected between a first input/output terminal (P1) and a second input/output terminal (P2). One end of the inductor (41) is connected between the resonator (21) and the first input/output terminal (P1). One end of the resonator (31) is connected to the other end of the inductor (41). The switch (51) selects either a connection portion that connects the inductor (41) and the resonator (31) or the resonator (32) and connects either the connection portion or the resonator (32), which has been selected, to a terminal of the resonator (21) on the side of the second input/output terminal (P2). The switching between the connection modes of the switch (51) changes the circuit configuration of the high-frequency filter (10).

    Abstract: In a radio-frequency circuit, a first switch is connected to an antenna terminal. A second switch is connected to the first switch and is connected to the antenna terminal via the first switch. A first filter is connected to the first switch without having the second switch interposed therebetween and allows a radio-frequency signal of a first communication band to pass through the first filter. A second filter is connected to the first switch via the second switch and allows a radio-frequency signal of a second communication band to pass through the second filter. The second communication band is higher than the first communication band. The radio-frequency circuit further includes an inductor. The inductor is not connected in series with the first filter and is connected in series with the first switch and the second switch between the first switch and the second switch.

    Abstract: A multiplexer includes first, second, and third filters with first, second, and third frequency bands different from each other, a first connection point connected to a common terminal, a second connection point connected to one end of the first filter and one end of the second filter, a first switch that switches connection and disconnection between the first and second connection points, a reactance element whose one end is connected to a signal path connecting the second connection point and the first switch, a second switch that switches connection and disconnection between the other end of the reactance element and the first connection point, and a third switch that switches connection and disconnection between one end of the third filter and the first connection point. The first and second frequency bands are adjacent to each other among the first, second, and third frequency bands.

    Abstract: A resonant circuit includes a resonator. An inductor is connected in parallel with the resonator. An inductor is connected in series with the parallel circuit formed of the resonator and the inductor. Further, a variable capacitor is connected in parallel with a series circuit formed of the inductor and the parallel circuit formed of the resonator and the inductor. The variable capacitor is connected in series with these circuits. As a result, a resonant circuit and a high-frequency filter supporting more communication signals are provided.

    Abstract: Even when frequency characteristics are changed in association with multiple communication bands, an attenuation required for a specific frequency band outside a pass band is obtained. A multiplexer includes a transmission filter, a reception filter, and a common connection point. An antenna-side end of the transmission filter and an antenna-side end of the reception filter are connected to the common connection point. The transmission filter includes multiple resonators including a parallel-arm resonator and a variable capacitor that is connected in series with the parallel-arm resonator. An inductor for forming an attenuation pole is provided between the antenna-side end of the reception filter and the common connection point. By the inductor for forming an attenuation pole and the reception filter, which is capacitive, an attenuation pole at a frequency close to or equal to a specific frequency outside the pass band of a transmission signal is formed.
