Abstract:
A variable-frequency resonance circuit includes first and second input/output terminals and a resonance circuit portion. The resonance circuit portion includes a first inductor and first and second LC series circuits. The resonance circuit portion is connected between a ground and a transmission line that connects the first and second input/output terminals. The first LC series circuit includes a second inductor and a variable capacitor connected in series with each other. The second LC series circuit includes a third inductor and a fixed capacitor connected in series with each other. The first and second LC series circuits are connected in parallel between the first inductor and a ground. The first and second inductors are configured such that positive-coupling mutual inductance is produced therebetween.
Abstract:
A directional coupler includes a main line, a sub line, and a first parasitic element. The main line includes a first main line portion. The sub line includes a first sub line portion electromagnetically coupled with the first main line portion. The first parasitic element receives a first magnetic flux which is generated by the first main line portion when a current flows through the first main line portion and generates a second magnetic flux passing through the first sub line portion due to electromagnetic induction.
Abstract:
A directional coupler includes a multilayer body including a plurality of stacked dielectric layers, a main line including a first main line portion and a second main line portion which are connected in series to each other in this order and that is provided in the multilayer body, and a sub-line including a first sub-line portion and a second sub-line portion which are connected in series to each other in this order, the first sub-line portion being electromagnetically coupled to the first main line portion, the second sub-line portion being electromagnetically coupled to the second main line portion, and the sub-line being provided on one side in a stacking direction with respect to the main line in the multilayer body. The second main line portion is provided on a dielectric layer that is different from a dielectric layer on which the first main line portion is provided and/or the second sub-line portion is provided on a dielectric layer that is different from a dielectric layer on which the first sub-line portion is provided.
