In recent years, the performance and size requirements sought in electronic components have been rising as smartphones and other mobile communication devices have been becoming more sophisticated and smaller. On the other hand, more filters are becoming necessary to support the ever-increasing frequency bands due to the shift to multi-band cellular communications and other factors.
Given this background, high-density mounting in a limited mounting space is becoming important. That means there is a growing need for the further downsizing of electronic components.
Murata has a lineup of small products at the 1005 size and LGA terminal products to meet such downsizing needs.
