Problems solved by technology

[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 delay lines, filters, etc., and a communication device having the surface acoustic wave device. Background technique [0002] In recent years, due to the miniaturization and weight reduction of electronic devices, electronic components are also required to be multifunctional. In this context, surface acoustic wave filters (hereinafter referred to as SAW filters) as surface acoustic wave devices used in communication devices such as mobile phones are also required to have an unbalanced-balanced conversion function. In order to achieve direct connection with ICs that work according to balanced inputs, research on them has become active. [0003] In particular, in a SAW device with an unbalanced-balanced conversion function composed of a resonator filter, the amplitude difference and phase difference on the balanced side become important characteristics (hereinafter referred to as balance)...
