[0066] Below, refer to Figure 1 to Figure 3 , Figure 4 A and Figure 4 B, the high frequency module 100 according to the first embodiment will be described in more detail.
[0067] (2.1) Circuit structure of the first filter and the second filter in the high-frequency module
[0068] like Figure 4 As shown in A of FIG. 1 , the first filter 1 has a pair of input / output terminals (a first input / output terminal 15 and a second input / output terminal 16) and a plurality of ( Figure 4In the example of A, there are eight first elastic wave resonators 14. The first filter 1 is, for example, a ladder filter. The eight first elastic wave resonators 14 include four series arm resonators (first series arm resonators) S11 to S14 and four parallel arm resonators (first parallel arm resonators) P11 to P14.

[0069] Furthermore, the first filter 1 includes an inductor L1 (hereinafter also referred to as the first inductor L1). The first inductor L1 is connected between the parallel arm resonator P14 and the ground (first ground). More specifically, the first inductor L1 is connected between the parallel arm resonator P14 closest to the second input / output terminal 16 among the plurality of parallel arm resonators P11 to P14 and the ground. The so-called "parallel arm resonator P14 closest to the second input / output terminal 16" is a parallel arm resonator P14 connected to the second input / output terminal 16 without passing through other first elastic wave resonators 14. In other words, the so-called "parallel arm resonator P14 closest to the second input / output terminal 16" is a parallel arm resonator P14 that is electrically closest to the second input / output terminal 16 regardless of the physical distance.
[0070] The first filter 1 has a plurality of circuit elements including eight first elastic wave resonators 14 , a wiring portion corresponding to the first signal path Ru1 , a plurality of wiring portions corresponding to the four parallel arm paths Ru11 to Ru14 , and a first inductor L1 .

The second filter 2 is, for example, a ladder filter. The eight second elastic wave resonators 24 include four series arm resonators (second series arm resonators) S21 to S24 and four parallel arm resonators (second parallel arm resonators) P21 to P24. The four series arm resonators S21 to S24 are provided on a signal path Ru2 (hereinafter also referred to as a second signal path Ru2) between the third input / output terminal 25 and the fourth input / output terminal 26.

The parallel arm resonator P21 is provided on the parallel arm path Ru21 between the path between the series arm resonator S21 and the series arm resonator S22 in the second signal path Ru2 and the ground. The parallel arm resonator P22 is provided on the parallel arm path Ru22 between the path between the series arm resonator S22 and the series arm resonator S23 in the second signal path Ru2 and the ground. The parallel arm resonator P23 is provided on the parallel arm path Ru23 between the path between the series arm resonator S23 and the series arm resonator S24 in the second signal path Ru2 and the ground. The parallel arm resonator P24 is provided on the parallel arm path Ru24 between the path between the series arm resonator S24 and the fourth input / output terminal 26 in the second signal path Ru2 and the ground.
[0072] In addition, the second filter 2 has an inductor L2 (hereinafter, also referred to as the second inductor L2). The second inductor L2 is connected between the parallel arm resonator P24 and the ground (second ground). More specifically, the second inductor L2 is connected between the parallel arm resonator P24 closest to the fourth input-output terminal 26 among the plurality of parallel arm resonators P21 to P24 and the ground. The so-called "parallel arm resonator P24 closest to the fourth input-output terminal 26" is a parallel arm resonator P24 connected to the fourth input-output terminal 26 without passing through other second elastic wave resonators 24. In other words, the so-called "parallel arm resonator P24 closest to the fourth input-output terminal 26" is a parallel arm resonator P24 that is electrically closest to the fourth input-output terminal 26 regardless of the physical distance.
[0073] The second filter 2 has a plurality of circuit elements including eight second elastic wave resonators 24 , a wiring portion corresponding to the second signal path Ru2 , a plurality of wiring portions corresponding to the four parallel arm paths Ru21 to Ru24 , and a second inductor L2 .
[0074] (2.2) Structure of high-frequency module
[0075] Below, refer to Figure 1 to Figure 3 The structure of the high-frequency module 100 will be described.
[0076] (2.2.1) Mounting the base plate
[0077] like Figure 2 As shown, the mounting substrate 9 has a first main surface 91 and a second main surface 92 that are opposite to each other in the thickness direction D0 of the mounting substrate 9. Here, the so-called "opposite" does not mean physical opposition, but means geometric opposition. When viewed from the top of the thickness direction D0 of the mounting substrate 9, the outer edge of the mounting substrate 9 is, for example, a quadrilateral shape. In addition, the mounting substrate 9 has an outer peripheral surface. The outer peripheral surface of the mounting substrate 9, for example, includes four side surfaces that connect the outer edge of the first main surface 91 of the mounting substrate 9 and the outer edge of the second main surface 92, and does not include the first main surface 91 and the second main surface 92. The mounting substrate 9 is, for example, a multilayer substrate including a plurality of dielectric layers and a plurality of conductive layers. The plurality of dielectric layers and the plurality of conductive layers are stacked in the thickness direction D0 of the mounting substrate 9. The plurality of conductive layers are formed into a given pattern specified for each layer. Each of the plurality of conductive layers includes one or more conductor portions in a plane orthogonal to the thickness direction D0 of the mounting substrate 9. The material of each conductive layer is, for example, copper. The plurality of conductive layers include a ground layer. In the high-frequency module 100, the ground layer of the mounting substrate 9 and the external ground terminals included in the plurality of external connection terminals 6 are electrically connected via via-hole conductors or the like included in the mounting substrate 9. The mounting substrate 9 is, for example, an LTCC (Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramics) substrate. The mounting substrate is not limited to an LTCC substrate, and may be, for example, a printed wiring board, an HTCC (High Temperature Co-fired Ceramics) substrate, or a resin multilayer substrate.
[0078] In addition, the mounting substrate 9 is not limited to the LTCC substrate, and may be, for example, a wiring structure. The wiring structure is, for example, a multilayer structure. The multilayer structure includes at least one insulating layer and at least one conductive layer. The insulating layer is formed into a given pattern. In the case where there are multiple insulating layers, the multiple insulating layers are formed into a given pattern specified for each layer. The conductive layer is formed into one or more given patterns different from the given pattern of the insulating layer. In the case where there are multiple conductive layers, the multiple conductive layers are formed into one or more given patterns specified for each layer. The conductive layer may also include one or more rewiring portions. In the wiring structure, the first of the two surfaces of the multilayer structure facing each other in the thickness direction is the first main surface 91 of the mounting substrate 9, and the second surface is the second main surface 92 of the mounting substrate 9. The wiring structure may also be, for example, an interposer. The interposer may be an interposer using a silicon substrate, or may be a substrate composed of multiple layers.
[0079] The first principal surface 91 and the second principal surface 92 of the mounting substrate 9 are separated in the thickness direction D0 of the mounting substrate 9 and intersect with the thickness direction D0 of the mounting substrate 9. The first principal surface 91 in the mounting substrate 9 is, for example, orthogonal to the thickness direction D0 of the mounting substrate 9, but, for example, it may also include the side surface of the conductor part as a surface not orthogonal to the thickness direction D0. In addition, the second principal surface 92 in the mounting substrate 9 is, for example, orthogonal to the thickness direction D0 of the mounting substrate 9, but, for example, it may also include the side surface of the conductor part as a surface not orthogonal to the thickness direction D0. In addition, the first principal surface 91 and the second principal surface 92 of the mounting substrate 9 may also be formed with fine concave and convex parts or concave parts or convex parts. For example, in the case where a concave part is formed on the first principal surface 91 of the mounting substrate 9, the inner surface of the concave part is included in the first principal surface 91.
[0080] (2.2.2) Chip 1
[0081] like Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 As shown, the first chip 4 is arranged on the first main surface 91 of the mounting substrate 9. The so-called "the first chip 4 is arranged on the first main surface 91 of the mounting substrate 9" includes the case where the first chip 4 is mounted on the first main surface 91 of the mounting substrate 9 (the case of mechanical connection) and the case where the first chip 4 is electrically connected to the mounting substrate 9 (the appropriate conductor portion). The first chip 4 has a plurality of (e.g., 8) first terminal electrodes T1 connected to the mounting substrate 9 and a plurality of (e.g., 4) second terminal electrodes T2 connected to the second chip 5. The eight first terminal electrodes T1 include, for example, the first input / output terminal 15 of the first filter 1 (see Figure 4 A), the second input and output terminal 16 (refer to Figure 4 A), 1st ground terminal 17 (refer to Figure 4 A) and the first connection terminal 18 (refer to Figure 4A). In addition, the eight first terminal electrodes T1 include a first terminal, a second terminal, and a third terminal connected to the third input / output terminal 25, the fourth input / output terminal 26, and the second ground terminal 27 of the second filter 2, respectively. The first connection terminal 18 is a terminal to which one end of the first inductor L1 is connected. The other end of the first inductor L1 is connected via a terminal 19 (see Figure 4 In the first chip 4, the eight first terminal electrodes T1 are connected to the corresponding eight conductor portions 96 (see FIG. 1 ) among the plurality of conductor portions of the mounting substrate 9 through the bonding portion 180. Figure 1 The material of the joint portion 180 is, for example, solder.
[0082] When viewed from above in the thickness direction D0 of the mounting substrate 9, the outer edge 40 of the first chip 4 is, for example, in a quadrilateral shape. The first chip 4 has a plurality of (eight) first elastic wave resonators 14 of the first filter 1. The first filter 1 is a surface acoustic wave filter using surface acoustic waves. The first chip 4 includes a first substrate 45 and a plurality of first functional electrodes 140, which are arranged on the first substrate 45 and constitute a part of each of the plurality of first elastic wave resonators 14. In the high-frequency module 100, each of the plurality of first functional electrodes 140 is an IDT (Interdigital Transducer) electrode. Therefore, each of the plurality of first elastic wave resonators 14 is a SAW (Surface Acoustic Wave) resonator.
[0083] The first substrate 45 includes a first piezoelectric layer 48 and a first high-acoustic-velocity member 46. The first high-acoustic-velocity member 46 is a high-acoustic-velocity support substrate located on the opposite side of the first functional electrode 140 across the first piezoelectric layer 48. In the first high-acoustic-velocity member 46, the acoustic velocity of the body wave propagating in the first high-acoustic-velocity member 46 is higher than the acoustic velocity of the elastic wave propagating in the first piezoelectric layer 48. Here, the body wave propagating in the first high-acoustic-velocity member 46 is a body wave having the lowest acoustic velocity among a plurality of body waves propagating in the first high-acoustic-velocity member 46. The first substrate 45 further includes a first low-acoustic-velocity film 47 interposed between the first high-acoustic-velocity member 46 and the first piezoelectric layer 48. The first low-acoustic-velocity film 47 is a film that makes the acoustic velocity of the body wave propagating in the first low-acoustic-velocity film 47 lower than the acoustic velocity of the body wave propagating in the first piezoelectric layer 48.
[0084] The material of the first piezoelectric layer 48 includes, for example, lithium tantalate or lithium niobate.
[0085] The material of the first high-acoustic velocity member 46 includes, for example, at least one material selected from the group consisting of silicon, aluminum nitride, aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, silicon nitride, sapphire, lithium tantalate, lithium niobate, quartz, alumina, zirconium oxide, cordierite, mullite, steatite, forsterite, magnesium oxide, and diamond.

The second high-acoustic-velocity member 56 is a high-acoustic-velocity support substrate located on the opposite side of the second functional electrode 240 across the second piezoelectric layer 58. In the second high-acoustic-velocity member 56, the acoustic velocity of the body wave propagating in the second high-acoustic-velocity member 56 is higher than the acoustic velocity of the elastic wave propagating in the second piezoelectric layer 58. Here, the body wave propagating in the second high-acoustic-velocity member 56 is the body wave with the lowest acoustic velocity among the plurality of body waves propagating in the second high-acoustic-velocity member 56. The second substrate 55 further includes a second low-acoustic-velocity film 57 interposed between the second high-acoustic-velocity member 56 and the second piezoelectric layer 58.

[0111] The outer edge 70 of the insulating layer 7 is, for example, a quadrangular shape when viewed from above in the thickness direction D0 of the mounting substrate 9. The outer edge 70 of the insulating layer 7 is the same shape as the outer edge 50 of the second chip 5 when viewed from above in the thickness direction D0 of the mounting substrate 9.
[0112] (2.2.9) Resin layer
[0113] like Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 As shown, the resin layer 8 is disposed on the first main surface 91 of the mounting substrate 9. The resin layer 8 contains a resin (for example, an epoxy resin). The resin layer 8 may contain a filler in addition to the resin. The resin layer 8 has electrical insulation properties.

[0115] (2.2.10) Metal electrode layer
[0116] like Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 As shown, the metal electrode layer 10 covers a portion of the insulating layer 7 and a portion of the resin layer 8.

[0119] In the high frequency module 100, as Figure 1As shown, when viewed from above in the thickness direction D0 of the mounting substrate 9, the first inductor L1 and the second inductor L2 do not overlap each other. The phrase "when viewed from above in the thickness direction D0 of the mounting substrate 9, the first inductor L1 and the second inductor L2 do not overlap each other" means that when viewed from above in the thickness direction D0 of the mounting substrate 9, the first inductor L1 and the second inductor L2 do not overlap each other at all, that is, they do not overlap each other even partially. Therefore, in the high-frequency module 100 according to the first embodiment, the first filter 1 (see Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 ) of the first inductor L1 and the second filter 2 (refer to Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 )'s second inductor L2 does not overlap at all.

[0122] In the previous process, the first wafer which will be the basis of the plurality of first chips 4 and the second wafer which will be the basis of the plurality of second chips 5 are bonded, and then a plurality of first structures are formed by techniques such as grinding, etching, plating, photolithography, evaporation, stripping, laser processing, coating, cutting, etc. Each of the plurality of first structures includes a stacked structure ST1 and a protective resin layer which will be the basis of the insulating layer 7. In the mounting process, the plurality of first structures are arranged on a base substrate which will be the basis of the plurality of mounting substrates 9. In the molding process, a molding layer which will be the basis of the plurality of resin layers 8 is formed. The molding layer covers the plurality of first structures arranged on the main surface of the base substrate. In the grinding process, the molding layer and the protective resin layer are ground to form the resin layer 8 and the insulating layer 7. Thus, the second structure which will be the basis of the plurality of high-frequency modules 100 is formed. In the cutting process, the second structure which will be the basis of the plurality of high-frequency modules 100 is divided into respective third structures corresponding to the plurality of high-frequency modules 100. In the metal electrode layer forming step, metal electrode layer 10 is formed by sputtering, for example, to cover principal surface 81 and peripheral surface of resin layer 8 in the third structure, principal surface 71 of insulating layer 7 , and peripheral surface of mounting substrate 9 .
[0123] (3) Effect
[0124] A high-frequency module 100 according to the first embodiment includes a mounting substrate 9, a first chip 4, and a second chip 5. The mounting substrate 9 has a main surface 91. The first chip 4 includes a plurality of first elastic wave resonators 14 of the first filter 1. The first chip 4 is arranged on the main surface 91 of the mounting substrate 9. The second chip 5 includes a plurality of second elastic wave resonators 24 of the second filter 2. The second chip 5 is arranged on the side of the first chip 4 opposite to the mounting substrate 9 side. The first chip 4 has a first main surface 41 on the second chip 5 side and a second main surface 42 on the mounting substrate 9 side.

The second inductor L2 as a second circuit element related to the second filter 2 is arranged on the fourth main surface 52 side of the second chip 5.
[0125] According to the high-frequency module 100 involved in the first embodiment, it is possible to suppress the degradation of characteristics while pursuing miniaturization. More specifically, according to the high-frequency module 100, the second chip 5 is arranged on the side opposite to the mounting substrate 9 side of the first chip 4, thereby achieving miniaturization. In addition, according to the high-frequency module 100, the wiring length between the second inductor L2 and the second elastic wave resonator 24 connected to the second inductor L2 in the second chip 5 can be shortened, and the degradation of the characteristics of the second filter 2 can be suppressed. In addition, according to the high-frequency module 100, the first inductor L1 related to the first filter 1 is arranged on the second main surface 42 side of the first chip 4, and the second inductor L2 included in the second filter 2 is arranged on the fourth main surface 52 of the second chip 5, thereby improving the isolation between the first inductor L1 and the second inductor L2. As a result, the high-frequency module 100 can suppress the degradation of the characteristics of each of the first filter 1 and the second filter 2.
[0126] Furthermore, in the high-frequency module 100 , the first inductor L1 is provided on the mounting substrate 9 . Thus, compared with the case where the first inductor L1 is arranged on the second main surface 42 of the first chip 4 , the high-frequency module 100 can further improve the isolation between the first inductor L1 and the second inductor L2 .
[0127] In the high frequency module 100, the metal electrode layer 10 covers at least a portion of the resin layer 8, and the second inductor L2 is connected to the second ground via the metal electrode layer 10. Thus, in the high frequency module 100, parasitic inductance between the second inductor L2 and the second ground can be reduced.
