Filter module using piezoelectric resonators, duplexer, communication device, and method for fabricating filter module

摘要

A filter module includes a substrate and a plurality of resonators formed on the substrate and utilizing longitudinal vibration along the thickness of a piezoelectric layer. A plurality of external connection terminals are formed above or below the piezoelectric layer so as to be electrically connected to external circuits and also electrically connected to some of the plurality of resonators through a plurality of interconnects formed to the side of the piezoelectric layer to which the external connection terminals are formed.
