Abstract
Front-end circuitry for a wireless communication device is disclosed. In some embodiments, the radio frequency (RF) front-end circuitry includes various transceiver chains. The transceiver chains may each include a bulk acoustic wave (BAW) filter. The BAW filter in each of the transceiver chains may each have the same filter design with various exposed external pins, such as input pins, output pins, and ground pins. With respect to the transceiver chains, a different combination of the external pins are hardwired depending on a desired placement of a passband. In this manner, switches and control circuitry for the switches are not needed in order to place the passband. Furthermore, BAW filters with the same filter design can be used in the different transceiver chains, thereby simplifying the manufacturing process of the front-end circuitry.
