[0070] The solid line waveform indicates the narrowband pass characteristic of the transmit filter 201 of the present embodiment 1. The dashed line waveform in the narrowband indicates the pass characteristic of the transmit filter of the comparative example.

[0071] As shown in FIG. 5, the pass characteristic of the transmit filter 201 of this embodiment is improved compared to the pass characteristic of the transmit filter of the comparative example.

[0072] Next, the pass characteristic of the receiving filter 202 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 6 illustrates the pass characteristics of receive filters of the acoustic wave device according to the first embodiment and a comparative example.

[0073] The solid line waveform indicates the narrowband pass characteristic of the receive filter 202 of the first embodiment. The dashed line waveform indicates the narrowband pass characteristic of the receive filter of the comparative example.

[0074] As shown in FIG. 6, the pass characteristic of the receive filter 202 of this embodiment is improved compared to the pass characteristic of the receive filter of the comparative example.

[0075] Next, the isolation characteristics will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing isolation characteristics of the acoustic wave device according to the first embodiment and a comparative example.

[0076] The solid line waveform indicates the narrowband isolation characteristic of the acoustic wave device 1 according to the present embodiment 1. The dashed line waveform indicates the narrowband isolation characteristic of the comparative example.

[0077] 7, the isolation characteristics of the acoustic wave device 1 of the present embodiment are improved compared to the isolation characteristics of the comparative example. In particular, in a region slightly higher than 960 MHz, the isolation characteristics are improved by the parallel resonator P3b.

[0078] Next, the antenna impedance will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 8 illustrates antenna impedances of the acoustic wave device according to the first embodiment and a comparative example.

[0079] The solid line waveform indicates the antenna impedance of the acoustic wave device 1 according to the present embodiment 1. The dashed line waveform indicates the antenna impedance of the comparative example.

[0080] As shown in the Smith chart of FIG. 8, the antenna impedance of the acoustic wave device 1 of the present embodiment is improved compared to the antenna impedance of the comparative example.

[0081] Next, a first example of power durability will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 9 is a diagram showing a first example of power durability of the acoustic wave device according to the first embodiment and a comparative example.

[0082] The solid line waveform indicates the power durability of the parallel resonator P1 of the acoustic wave device 1 of the present embodiment 1. The dashed line waveform indicates the power durability of a parallel resonator in a comparative example that is arranged at the same position as the parallel resonator P1.

[0083] As shown in FIG. 9, the power durability of the parallel resonator P1 of the present embodiment is improved compared to the power durability of the parallel resonator arranged at the same position as the parallel resonator P1 in the comparative example.

[0084] Next, a second example of power durability will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 10 illustrates a second example of power durability of the acoustic wave device according to the first embodiment and a comparative example.

[0085] The solid line waveform indicates the power durability of the parallel resonator P3b of the acoustic wave device 1 according to the present embodiment 1. The dashed line waveform indicates the power durability of the parallel resonator P1b of the comparative example.

[0086] As shown in FIG. 10, the power durability of the parallel resonator P3b of the present embodiment is slightly inferior to the power durability of the parallel resonator P1b in the comparative example.

[0087] However, the parallel resonator P3b has a high power resistance because it receives power simultaneously with the series resonator S4. Also, the parallel resonator P3b is disposed at a position farthest from the transmission terminal 502. Therefore, the parallel resonator P3b is less likely to break down than the parallel resonator P1b.

[0088] According to the first embodiment described above, the parallel resonator P3b is electrically connected to the receiving ground pad GND-Rx, which makes it possible to provide an acoustic wave device 1 that is smaller in size and has better isolation characteristics.

[0089] Furthermore, the parallel resonator P3b is not electrically connected to the transmitting ground pad GND-Tx, which provides the acoustic wave device 1 with better isolation characteristics.

[0090] Moreover, among the multiple parallel resonators P1, P2, P3a, and P3b, the parallel resonator P3b is disposed at a position farthest from the transmission terminal 502. This makes it possible to make the parallel resonator P3b less likely to break.

[0091] Moreover, the parallel resonator P3b is one of the resonators divided in parallel at the final stage of the transmit filter 201. This makes it possible to make the parallel resonator P3b less likely to break.

[0092] Furthermore, the capacitance of the parallel resonator P3b is smaller than the average capacitance of the multiple parallel resonators P1, P2, P3a, and P3b, which makes it possible to reduce the insertion loss of the transmit filter 201.

[0093] Furthermore, the capacitance of the parallel resonator P3b is the smallest among the multiple parallel resonators P1, P2, P3a, and P3b, which makes it possible to further reduce the insertion loss of the transmit filter 201.

[0094] Moreover, the parallel resonator P3b has a resonant frequency that is close to the highest frequency in the passband of the receive filter 202. This makes it possible to provide an acoustic wave device 1 with even more excellent isolation characteristics.

[0095] The substrate of the device chip 5 is a substrate in which a piezoelectric substrate and a substrate made of sapphire, silicon, alumina, spinel, quartz crystal or glass are bonded together, making it possible to provide an acoustic wave device 1 with superior temperature characteristics.

[0096] Furthermore, the area of ​​the first reception ground electrode 305 and the area of ​​the second reception ground electrode 405 are larger than the area of ​​the first transmission ground electrode 304 and the area of ​​the second transmission ground electrode 404. Therefore, even if a DMS filter is used as the reception filter 202, the floor level of the reception filter 202 can be appropriately set.

[0097] Embodiment 2 11 is a vertical cross-sectional view of a module to which the acoustic wave device according to the embodiment 2 is applied. Note that the same reference numerals are used to designate the same or corresponding parts as those in the embodiment 1. Description of these parts will be omitted.

[0101] Although not shown, the integrated circuit component IC is mounted inside the wiring board 130. The integrated circuit component IC includes a switching circuit and a low-noise amplifier.

[0102] The acoustic wave device 1 is mounted on a main surface of a wiring board 130.

[0104] The sealing portion 117 seals a plurality of electronic components including the acoustic wave device 1 .

[0105] According to the second embodiment described above, the module 100 includes the acoustic wave device 1. Therefore, it is possible to provide a module 100 that is smaller in size and has better isolation characteristics.
