ABSTRACT:
A surface acoustic wave filter includes first to fifth IDTs arranged on a piezoelectric substrate along a surface acoustic wave propagation direction. The second IDT and the fourth IDT have a phase difference of 180° with respect to each other. The second and fourth IDTs are connected to an unbalanced terminal. The third IDT includes a first sub-IDT portion and a second sub-IDT portion. The first IDT and the first sub-IDT portion are connected to a first balanced terminal, and the second sub-IDT portion and the fifth IDT are connected to a second balanced terminal. The following conditions: 1.55≦N3/N1≦2.58 and N1=N5are satisfied, where N1denotes the number of electrode fingers that determines the center frequency of the first IDT, N3denotes the number of electrode fingers that determines the center frequency of the third IDT, and N5denotes the number of electrode fingers that determines the center frequency of the fifth IDT.
