Abstract

A SAW filter includes multiple SAW resonators. The multiple SAW resonators, which are connected in series, are connected any one of between a signal input terminal and a ground that is the closest thereto and between a signal output terminal and another ground that is the closest thereto. The SAW resonators have substantially equal electrostatic capacitances. It is thus possible to protect the SAW resonators without providing a sacrificial electrode for electrostatic breakdown, and thereby possible to configure the SAW filter having a high reliability against the electrostatic discharge.
