Abstract
Lossy members, which are disposed to overlap with a part of branch conductors in a signal conductor, respectively, and cause a loss of the power of signals flowing in the branch conductors, and via holes connecting each of the output terminals of the signal conductor and the ground conductor are included. The branch conductor includes a delay circuit having an electrical length of 90 degrees.
Claims10
A terminal device comprising:
- a dielectric substrate formed of a dielectric;
- a signal conductor disposed in a first layer of the dielectric substrate, the signal conductor having a branching point at which the signal conductor branches into two, the branching point being between an input terminal and at least one first output terminal, the branching point also being between the input terminal and at least one second output terminal;
- a ground conductor disposed in a second layer of the dielectric substrate opposing the first layer of the dielectric substrate;
- lossy members disposed to overlap with:
- a part of a first branch conductor extending from the branching point of the signal conductor to the at least one first output terminal;
- and a part of a second branch conductor extending from the branching point of the signal conductor to the at least one second output terminal, in a thickness direction of the dielectric substrate, the lossy members causing a loss of power of signals flowing in the first branch conductor and the second branch conductor;
- and
- connecting members connecting each of the at least one first output terminal and the at least one second output terminal and the ground conductor, the connecting members each formed as a via hole connecting the first layer and the second layer of the dielectric substrate,
- wherein the first branch conductor includes a delay circuit having an electrical length longer than an electrical length of the second branch conductor by 90 degrees, and the ground conductor is disposed on an entire surface of the second layer of the dielectric substrate.
