Abstract
A coupling adjusting structure for a double-tuned circuit contains first and second coils that are configured such that a pair of first conductive patterns formed on a first surface of a printed circuit and a corresponding pair of second conductive patterns formed on a second surface of the printed circuit board are connected via corresponding connecting conductors. One end of the first coil and the corresponding end of the second coil are disposed close to each other. A first ground conductive pattern is disposed at least on the first surface of the printed circuit. A first jumper connected to the first ground conductive pattern is disposed between the first and second coils to adjust an inductive coupling of the double-tuned circuit.
