An RF circuit device using modified lattice, lattice, and ladder circuit topologies. The devices can include four resonator devices and four shunt resonator devices. In the ladder topology, the resonator devices are connected in series from an input port to an output port while shunt resonator devices are coupled the nodes between the resonator devices. In the lattice topology, a top and a bottom serial configurations each includes a pair of resonator devices that are coupled to differential input and output ports. A pair of shunt resonators is cross-coupled between each pair of a top serial configuration resonator and a bottom serial configuration resonator. The modified lattice topology adds baluns or inductor devices between top and bottom nodes of the top and bottom serial configurations of the lattice configuration. These topologies may be applied using single crystal or polycrystalline bulk acoustic wave (BAW) resonators.

5.5 GHz Wi-Fi 5G coexistence acoustic wave resonator RF filter circuit

A BAW resonator filter can include a BAW resonator pass-band filter ladder, the BAW resonator pass-band filter ladder can be configured to pass frequency components of an input signal in a pass-band of frequencies received at an input node of the BAW resonator pass-band filter ladder to an output node of the BAW resonator pass-band filter ladder. A first rejection-band series resonator can be coupled in series between an input port of the BAW resonator pass-band filter ladder and the input node, the first rejection-band series resonator can have a first anti-resonant frequency peak in a rejection-band of frequencies that is less than the pass-band of frequencies. A second rejection-band series resonator can be coupled in series between an output port of the BAW resonator filter and the output node, the second rejection-band series resonator can have a second anti-resonant frequency peak in the rejection-band of frequencies.

A Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) resonator filter can include a BAW resonator pass-band filter ladder, where the BAW resonator pass-band filter ladder can be configured to pass frequency components of an input signal in a pass-band of frequencies received at an input node of the BAW resonator pass-band filter ladder to an output node of the BAW resonator pass-band filter ladder. A first rejection-band series resonator can be coupled in series between an input port of the BAW resonator pass-band filter ladder and the input node, where the first rejection-band series resonator can have a first anti-resonant frequency peak in a rejection-band of frequencies that is less than the pass-band of frequencies.
