Abstract

A high-frequency module includes a longitudinally coupled surface acoustic wave filter and a low-noise amplifier that is connected to the surface acoustic wave filter. The input impedance of the surface acoustic wave filter connected to the low-noise amplifier differs from the output impedance thereof. On a Smith chart, the output impedance in the pass band of the surface acoustic wave filter is present in a region between a first output impedance and a second output impedance, the first output impedance being the output impedance of the surface acoustic wave filter where a gain of the low-noise amplifier is maximum, the second output impedance being the output impedance of the surface acoustic wave filter where a noise figure of the low-noise amplifier is minimum.
