Abstract
A composite electronic component includes a first acoustic wave filter, a second acoustic wave filter, a spacer layer, and a switch. The second acoustic wave filter faces the first acoustic wave filter in a first direction. The switch switches an ON state and an OFF state of the first acoustic wave filter and an ON state and an OFF state of the second acoustic wave filter. A first functional electrode and a second functional electrode are located in a hollow space and face each other in the first direction. The switch brings at least one of the first acoustic wave filter and the second acoustic wave filter into the OFF state.
Claims16
A composite electronic component, comprising:
- a first acoustic wave filter;
- a second acoustic wave filter that faces the first acoustic wave filter in a first direction;
- a spacer layer having a substantially frame shape and provided between the first acoustic wave filter and the second acoustic wave filter in the first direction;
- and
- a switch that switches an ON state and an OFF state of the first acoustic wave filter and an ON state and an OFF state of the second acoustic wave filter;
- wherein
- the first acoustic wave filter includes:
- a first support having piezoelectricity at least in a portion thereof;
- and
- a first functional electrode provided at a first principal surface of the first support;
- the second acoustic wave filter includes:
- a second support having piezoelectricity at least in a portion thereof;
- and
- a second functional electrode provided at a second principal surface of the second support;
- a hollow space is defined by the first support, the second support, and the spacer layer;
- the first functional electrode and the second functional electrode are located in the hollow space and face each other in the first direction;
- and
- the switch brings at least one of the first acoustic wave filter and the second acoustic wave filter into the OFF state.
