Abstract:
1. A central conductor assembly for use in a non-reciprocal circuit comprising a first inductance element between a first input/output port and a second input/output port, and a second inductance element between the second input/output port and a ground port, a magnetic substrate being integrally provided with a first central conductor constituting said first inductance element and a second central conductor constituting said second inductance element; said second central conductor being crossing said first central conductor on a main surface side of said substrate via a magnetic layer or a dielectric layer; and at least one end portion of said second central conductor being bent, such that high-frequency current flows therethrough in the same direction as or in an opposite direction to that of high-frequency current flowing through said first central conductor, wherein a part of said first central conductor and said second central conductor are formed on a main surface of said substrate, while the other part of said first central conductor is formed in said substrate.
