However, the conventional three-electrode longitudinal mode resonator type surface acoustic wave filter can realize a bandpass filter having a low loss and a wide band. However, as shown by reference numeral 71 in FIG. High-side attenuation is 10d
It is not enough as B or less. As a method of improving the attenuation amount, there is a method of increasing the number of taps of the interdigital finger electrodes for input and output, but the pass band width becomes narrow and the necessary band cannot be secured. Further, in the method of controlling each resonance mode by changing the distance between the interdigitating electrodes for input and output and the distance between the interdigitating electrodes and the reflector with the conventional configuration, the in-band amplitude deviation becomes large.

However, in the resonator, by providing a cavity in the central portion of the interdigital electrode, acoustic energy is not concentrated in the central portion of the interdigital electrode and is dispersed, so that the loss of the resonator can be reduced. Yes, there is a difference in that the present invention is a filter utilizing a plurality of resonance modes.
According to PV Wright's paper, a filter having a two-electrode structure has one of two electrodes as a split electrode, so that this filter has an asymmetrical structure when viewed from the center, which causes a disadvantage of generating an unnecessary spurious mode. On the other hand, the three-electrode longitudinal mode resonator type surface acoustic wave filter of the present invention has an advantage that unnecessary spurious modes do not occur because the symmetry of the filter structure is not broken even when the central interdigital electrode is divided.

As is apparent from the above description, according to the present invention, the central interdigital electrode is divided into two, the divided electrodes are connected in parallel, and the respective electrodes are closest to each other. By setting the distance between the centers of the electrode fingers to be within a predetermined distance range, the number of taps of the conventional input / output interdigital electrode, the distance between the input / output interdigital electrode, and the distance between the interdigital electrode and the reflector can be adjusted. It is possible to improve the attenuation amount on the high frequency side near the band without deteriorating the in-band characteristic, which could not be realized by changing it.
