  • Publication number: 20230199943
    Abstract: A radio-frequency module is provided that includes a structure, a filtering element disposed on the structure, a switching element embedded in the structure, and an impedance element connected to the switching element and the filtering element. In a plan view of the structure, the switching element and the filtering element overlap each other in at least part thereof. The structure has a plurality of vias including a via , a via and a via. The via connects the input-output terminal and the filtering element. The via connects the ground terminal and an impedance adjustment circuit including the switching element and the impedance element. In a plan view, the via is located in a smallest rectangular region encompassing the vias.
