    Abstract: Acoustic impedance tuning in a wireless transmission circuit (a.k.a. wireless device) is provided. In aspects discussed herein, the wireless transmission circuit includes an acoustic load-line tuning circuit that can be configured to adapt a load-line impedance presenting to a power amplifier circuit. In embodiments disclosed herein, the acoustic load-line tuning circuit can be dynamically controlled to provide impedance matching between a power amplifier circuit and other load-line circuits (e.g., filter circuits, antenna switch circuits, and/or antenna circuits). As a result, it is possible to reduce a signal reflection resulting from an impedance mismatch between the power amplifier circuit and the load-line circuits, thus helping to improve performance of the wireless transmission circuit.

    Abstract: An acoustic wave device includes a composite substrate and an excitation electrode located on an upper surface of the composite substrate. The composite substrate includes a support substrate, a multilayer film, and a piezoelectric film overlapping the upper surface of the multilayer film. The multilayer film includes a plurality of acoustic films stacked on an upper surface of the support substrate. Adjacent ones of the acoustic films in a direction in which the acoustic films are stacked are made of different materials. The excitation electrode is located on an upper surface of the piezoelectric film. A side surface of the composite substrate includes a step portion. The step portion has a step-like shape with two or more steps ascending from the support substrate side to the piezoelectric film side in a direction from an outside to an inside with respect to the side surface.

    Abstract: An acoustic wave filter includes a first ladder circuit including a first series arm resonator and a first parallel arm resonator, a second ladder circuit including a second series arm resonator and a second parallel arm resonator, and a third ladder circuit including a third series arm resonator and a third parallel arm resonator. The first, second and third ladder circuits are cascade-connected in order. A condition of fas1>fas2>fas3>frp1>frp2>frp3 is satisfied, where fas1 represents an anti-resonant frequency of the first series arm resonator, fas2 represents an anti-resonant frequency of the second series arm resonator, fas3 represents an anti-resonant frequency of the third series arm resonator, frp1 represents a resonant frequency of the first parallel arm resonator, frp2 represents a resonant frequency of the second parallel arm resonator, and frp3 represents a resonant frequency of the third parallel arm resonator.
