Abstract
A filter device is provided which is low in power loss, small in size and operates in wide bands. The filter device includes a first signal-side resonator having an input signal electrode, an output signal electrode, a first piezoelectric film, an input electrode film, and a common electrode film being commonly used by a second signal-side resonator and sandwiching the first piezoelectric film using the input electrode film, a second signal-side resonator having a second piezoelectric film formed in layers on the first piezoelectric film, an output electrode film, a common electrode film sandwiching the second piezoelectric film using the output electrode film and being acoustically coupled to the first signal resonator, and a ground-side resonator connected between the common electrode film and a ground electrode and operating in a specified resonant frequency and in an anti-resonant frequency almost conforming to resonant frequencies in which the first and second signal-side resonators operate.
