[0012] However, in the above structure, since the phase of the resonator filter 110 is 180° different from that of the resonator filter 100, the signal terminal and the ground of the electrode fingers in the IDT 111 at the center of the resonator filter 110 are For the resonator type filter 100 reversed, therefore, it includes the situation that the number of signal terminals and grounding of the resonator type filter 100 and the resonator type filter 110 are different and the signal terminal and grounding in the boundary between IDT and IDT Factors that deteriorate the balance, such as the case where an unnecessary electric field is generated by paralleling
As a countermeasure to improve the balance, there is still a method of grounding the electrode finger of the signal terminal, but there is a problem in the balance

Abstract

A surface acoustic wave device has an unbalanced-to-balanced conversion function, which is capable of improving balanced characteristics, includes a first resonator filter and a second resonator filter, having a plurality of interdigital transducers disposed along the propagation direction of a surface acoustic wave. The surface acoustic wave device has an unbalanced-to-balanced conversion function as a result of the phase of the second resonator filter being reversed by 180 DEG with respect to that of the first resonator filter. The surface acoustic wave device further includes a first resonator connected in series to an unbalanced signal terminal side of the first resonator filter, and a second resonator connected in series to an unbalanced signal terminal side of the second resonator filter. The first resonator and the second resonator have different design parameters.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a surface acoustic wave device used in a delay line, a filter, etc., and a communication device including the surface acoustic wave device. Background technique [0002] In recent years, electronic components have been required to be multifunctional due to miniaturization and weight reduction of electronic equipment. Against such a background, a surface acoustic wave filter (hereinafter referred to as a SAW filter) as a surface acoustic wave device used in a communication device such as a mobile phone is also required to have an unbalanced-balanced conversion function, In order to achieve direct connection with ICs that operate on balanced inputs, research has also become active. [0003] In particular, in a SAW device having an unbalanced-to-balanced conversion function composed of a resonator-type filter, the amplitude difference and phase difference on the balanced side become important characteristics (hereinafter ...
