Abstract
A high-frequency switch includes a multi-layer board or a laminate. The laminate is formed by laminating many dielectric layers 14. First and second strip lines, capacitors and so on are provided inside the laminate. Each of the capacitors is formed by the combination of the dielectric layer and two capacitor electrodes which sandwich the dielectric layer. Also, first and second diodes and so on are mounted on the laminate. Furthermore, external electrodes are formed on portions of four sides of the laminate.
