Abstract

A high-frequency board includes an insulating substrate, a first line conductor, a second line conductor, a capacitor, a first bond, and a second bond. The insulating substrate has a recess on its upper surface. The first line conductor extends from an edge of the recess on the upper surface of the insulating substrate. The second line conductor faces the first line conductor across the recess on the upper surface of the insulating substrate. The capacitor overlaps the recess. The first bond joins the capacitor to the first line conductor. The second bond joins the capacitor to the second line conductor, and is spaced from the first bond.
