Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide for a transmission circuit that includes a transmission line and a conductive via. The transmission line is electrically coupled to a first conductive via and a second conductive via. The first conductive via includes a first via stub, wherein the transmission line is configured to transmit a signal that is coupled to the first conductive via, and wherein the first via stub extends beyond the transmission line. The second conductive via includes a second via stub, wherein the transmission line is configured to transmit a signal that is coupled to the second conductive via, and wherein the second via stub extends beyond the transmission line. A transmission line stub is electrically coupled to the transmission line or to at least one of the conductive vias, wherein the length of the transmission line stub is configured to suppress a preselected frequency.
Abstract:
A tunable filter design. The filter is implemented using transmission line sections as inductive and capacitive components. At least one capacitive component is a tunable capacitor. In some implementations, the tunable capacitor may be an interdigitated array of finger elements arranged so that the spacing between fingers may be adjusted. The design has a number of advantages including high capacitance for a given circuit area, small area for a given desired capacitance, mechanical stability, high self resonance frequency, and high quality factor.

Abstract:
A circuit substrate has three wiring layers, wherein a signal line is formed in a first wiring layer; a ground plane is formed in a second wiring layer; a resonant line is formed in a third wiring layer. A circumferential slit is formed in the ground plane, wherein an island electrode separated from the ground plane is formed inside the slit. The left end of the resonant line is connected to the island electrode through an interlayer-connecting via, while the right end of the resonant line is connected to the ground plane through an interlayer-connecting via. A transmission line (or a microstrip line) is formed using the signal line and the ground plane, and therefore a complex resonator is formed to embrace the transmission line. This achieves band elimination with regard to a signal component of a resonance frequency among signals propagating through the microstrip line. Thus, it is possible to form a noise suppression structure without mounting additional parts on the circuit substrate, and therefore it is possible to effectively eliminate power distribution noise and noise propagating through the signal line with a small and simple configuration.

The stacked body and a resin base film are integrated by hot pressing. The base film has a terminal-connecting through hole for receiving an electrode terminal of an electronic component to be connected to a conductive pattern of the low-fluidity resin film disposed at an end of the stacked body. An electronic component mounting section of the stacked body, which is an area corresponding to the electronic component mounted on the base film in a stacking direction, is configured such that a number of the conductive patterns located in a corresponding section that corresponds to the through hole in the stacking direction is greater than a number of the conductive patterns located in a non-corresponding section without corresponding to the through hole in the stacking direction.
