Abstract

A non-reciprocal circuit device comprising a first inductance element disposed between a first input/output port and a second input/output port; a second inductance element disposed between the second input/output port and the ground; a first capacitance element constituting a first parallel resonance circuit with the first inductance element; a resistance element parallel-connected to the first parallel resonance circuit; a third inductance element series-connected between the second inductance element and the ground; and a second capacitance element constituting a second parallel resonance circuit with the second and third inductance elements.

Claims (8)

1. A non-reciprocal circuit device comprising a first inductance element disposed between a first input/output port and a second input/output port, a second inductance element disposed between the second input/output port and ground, a first capacitance element constituting a first parallel resonance circuit with said first inductance element, a resistance element parallel-connected to said first parallel resonance circuit, a third inductance element series-connected between said second inductance element and ground, and a second capacitance element constituting a second parallel resonance circuit with said second and third inductance elements.

2. The non-reciprocal circuit device according to claim 1 , wherein a first line constituting said first inductance element and a second line constituting said second inductance element are crossing, while a third line constituting said third inductance element is not crossing said first and second lines.

3. The non-reciprocal circuit device according to claim 1 , wherein said first inductance element has inductance which is smaller than the total inductance of said second inductance element and said third inductance element.

4. The non-reciprocal circuit device according to claim 1 , which comprises an impedance-adjusting means constituted by a fourth inductance element and/or a third capacitance element which is disposed between the first input/output port and said first parallel resonance circuit.

5. The non-reciprocal circuit device according to claim 4 , wherein said impedance-adjusting means is a lowpass filter.

6. A non-reciprocal circuit device comprising a first inductance element disposed between a first input/output port and a second input/output port; a second inductance element disposed between the second input/output port and ground; a first capacitance element constituting a first parallel resonance circuit with said first inductance element; a resistance element parallel-connected to said first parallel resonance circuit; a third inductance element series-connected between said second inductance element and ground; and a second capacitance element constituting a second parallel resonance circuit with said second inductance element and said third inductance element; said first and second inductance elements being constituted by first and second lines crossing with electric insulation on a main surface of or in a microwave ferrite; at least part of said first and/or second capacitance elements being constituted by electrode patterns formed on and/or in a laminate substrate; and said third inductance element being a core-less coil or a chip inductor mounted on said laminate substrate.

7. The non-reciprocal circuit device according to claim 6 , wherein said resistance element is a chip resistor mounted on said laminate substrate or a printed resistor formed in said laminate substrate.

8. The non-reciprocal circuit device according to claim 6 , which further comprises an impedance-adjusting means constituted by a fourth inductance element and/or a third capacitance element which is disposed between the first input/output port and said first parallel resonance circuit, and wherein said fourth inductance element and/or said third capacitance element are constituted by electrode patterns formed in said laminate substrate, or elements mounted on said laminate substrate.
