Patent ID: 8120446

Claim:
An electronic component comprising: a layered substrate including a plurality of dielectric layers stacked; and a plurality of resonators provided within the layered substrate such that every adjacent two of the resonators are inductively coupled to each other, wherein: at least one, but not all, of the plurality of resonators includes a resonator-forming conductor layer of a first type and a resonator-forming conductor layer of a second type that each have a short-circuited end and an open-circuited end, relative positions of the short-circuited end and the open-circuited end being reversed between the first and second types; the resonator-forming conductor layers of the first type and the second type are arranged to be adjacent to each other in a direction in which the plurality of dielectric layers are stacked; and at least one of the plurality of resonators, other than the at least one that includes the resonator-forming conductor layers of the first type and the second type, includes a through-hole type inductor formed using at least one through hole provided within the layered substrate.
