A duplexer includes two surface acoustic wave (SAW) filters having
different center frequencies; a phase matching circuit that matches
phases of the two SAW filters; a package in which the SAW filters and the
phase matching circuit are housed, the package being composed of multiple
layers; and a line pattern provided between at least one of the SAW
filters and at least one of a transmit terminal and a receive terminal of
the duplexer. The line pattern runs on at least two of the multiple
layers within a range defined by peripheral ground patterns provided in
the package.
