Claim:
1. A chip antenna, comprising: a block having a rectangular cuboid shape; a feed terminal pad formed on a rectangular bottom surface of the block at a short side of said rectangular bottom surface; a ground electrode formed on an area on the bottom surface of the block; an electrically insulated area formed on the bottom surface of the block so as to separate the feed terminal pad with the ground electrode; an excitation electrode that has one end on a narrower side face, among side faces, of the block, the end being connected to the feed terminal pad on the bottom surface, the excitation electrode extending from a bottom portion of said narrower side face of the block towards a top surface of the block; a first radiating electrode of a split ring resonator type having two open ends, the first radiating electrode having a capacitively coupled portion formed by arranging two open end portions defining a first slit on a wider side face, among the side faces, of the block that is adjacent to said narrower side face, the first radiating electrode having a prescribed portion connected to another end of the excitation electrode, said two end portions of the first radiating electrode that define said first slit, forming the capacitively coupled portion, are entirely on said wider side face of the block; a second radiating electrode having two ends, one end being connected to the ground electrode and another end being open, and in which at least a central portion of the second radiating electrode is formed on the top surface of the block and an open end portion of the second radiating electrode forms a second slit with a portion of the first radiating electrode so as to form a capacitively coupled portion between said portion of the first radiating electrode and said open end portion of the second radiating electrode, wherein said first slit formed by said two end portions of the first radiating electrode and said second slit formed by the open end portion of the second radiating electrode and said portion of the first radiating electrode respectively have uniform gaps and extend in a direction parallel to a longitudinal direction of the block, and wherein a resonance frequency of the first radiating electrode and a resonance frequency of the second radiating electrode are different from each other.
