A SAW filter includes a plurality of IDTs arranged on substrate along a SAW propagation direction, and balanced signal terminals connected to an IDT. The SAW filter is a floating balanced type. The plurality of IDTs are arranged so as to provide a horizontally asymmetrical structure with respect to an imaginary axis that is positioned at the approximate center of the center IDT in the SAW propagation direction and which is substantially perpendicular to the SAW propagation direction. Thus, a SAW filter having filtering characteristics and a balance-to-unbalance conversion function is achieved with high balance between the balanced signal terminals.
