Abstract
A surface acoustic wave filter having a ladder type circuit configuration, includes series resonators provided as part of a series arm disposed between input and output terminals and parallel resonators included in a plurality of parallel arms, respectively, defined between the series arm and a reference potential. The series resonators and parallel resonators each include a one-port surface acoustic wave resonator, the parallel resonators are arranged alternately with the series resonators along a direction from the input terminal toward the output terminal, and the resonant frequency of at least one parallel resonator is different from the resonant frequencies of the other parallel resonators.
