摘要:
An elastic wave filter includes first and second longitudinally coupled elastic wave filters. The first filter includes a first pair of grating reflectors, first to fifth IDT electrodes arranged in ordinal order between the grating reflectors along a propagation direction of elastic waves, a first unbalanced terminal, and first and second balanced terminals. The second filter has a second unbalanced terminal, and third and fourth balanced terminals, the first and second unbalanced terminals being electrically connected to each other, the first and third balanced terminals being electrically connected to a first JO terminal, and the second and fourth balanced terminals being electrically connected to a second JO terminal. The first and second balanced terminals, and the third and fourth balanced terminals, output signals opposite in phase to each other. A first signal at the first JO terminal is opposite in phase to a second signal at the second IO terminal.

An electronic device includes a main circuit connected between an input terminal and an output terminal, and an auxiliary circuit connected in parallel to the main circuit between the input terminal and the output terminal. The main circuit includes a filter having a first passband and a stopband. The auxiliary circuit has a passing characteristic that allows a signal having a frequency in a certain frequency band inside the stopband to pass through the auxiliary circuit. The main circuit is configured to output a main signal in response to an input signal. The auxiliary circuit is configured to output an auxiliary signal in response to the input signal. The main signal and the auxiliary signal contain phase components opposite to each other in the certain frequency band inside the stopband. This electronic device has an attenuation amount in the stopband.

A ladder-type surface acoustic wave filter includes a first series resonator having the lowest resonance frequency among a plurality of series resonators; and a second series resonator having a resonance frequency higher than the first series resonator.

An elastic wave device includes an interdigital transducer (IDT) electrode in contact with a piezoelectric substrate having a bus bar electrode region including one of a first bus bar electrode and a second bus bar electrode of the IDT electrode, an alternately disposed region where first electrode fingers are alternately disposed with second electrode fingers of the IDT electrode, and an intermediate region including one of the first electrode fingers and the second electrode fingers. A dielectric film is formed in at least part of the intermediate region and in contact with an upper surface of the IDT electrode. The dielectric film includes a medium in which an acoustic velocity of a transverse wave propagating in the dielectric film is lower than an acoustic velocity of a main elastic wave of the alternately disposed region. The dielectric film is not formed in the alternately disposed region.

In an acoustic wave device, an unnecessary high-order transverse mode wave is suppressed. The acoustic wave device includes a piezoelectric substrate, at least one pair of interdigital transducer (IDT) electrodes formed on the piezoelectric substrate, and a dielectric film which covers at least a part of the piezoelectric substrate and the IDT electrodes. The IDT electrodes each have a plurality of electrode fingers interleaved with each other. An acoustic velocity of an acoustic wave in the area in which the electrode fingers are interleaved with each other is greater than an acoustic velocity of an acoustic wave in an edge area including end portions of the electrode fingers.

In a ladder-type elastic wave filter, a resonance frequency of a second parallel resonator is higher than that of a series resonator and lower than an antiresonance frequency of a series resonator. With this configuration, an attenuation pole is formed by the second parallel resonator at a frequency region lower than an attenuation pole formed by the series resonator in a frequency region higher than the passband of the ladder-type elastic wave filter.

An antenna duplexer includes first and second filters connected to an antenna terminal. The first filter has a passband of a low frequency band. The second filter has a passband of a high frequency band. The second filter is a ladder-type filter including series-arm resonators and parallel-arm resonators. At least one parallel-arm resonator out of the parallel-arm resonators has a main resonance and an auxiliary resonance. Attenuation poles caused by the main resonance and the auxiliary resonance are within the low frequency band. This antenna duplexer has a high attenuation characteristic and a high isolation characteristic while maintaining a low insertion loss.
摘要:
An elastic wave filter has an unbalanced signal terminal, first and second balanced signal terminals, and first through fifth IDT electrodes arranged in ordinal order between a pair of grating reflectors. Wiring electrodes of the third and fifth IDT electrodes are disposed adjacent a ground electrode of the fourth IDT electrode, wiring electrodes of the second and third IDT electrodes are disposed adjacent one another, and ground electrodes of the first and second IDT electrodes are disposed adjacent one another. The unbalanced signal terminal is connected to the wiring electrodes of the first, third, and fifth IDT electrodes, and the first and second balanced signal terminals are connected to the wiring electrodes of the second and fourth IDT electrodes, respectively. A pitch gradation of pitch spacing between electrode fingers in each of the first, second, and third IDT electrodes on one side of a center line in the third IDT electrode is gradually reduced by a first spacing α, and a pitch gradation of pitch spacing between electrode fingers in each of the third, fourth, and fifth IDT electrodes on the other side of the center line is gradually reduced by a second spacing β (β≠α), as the distance from the center line increases.
