A transmission line component includes an insulation substrate, signal line conductors, and a common-mode choke coil. The insulation substrate is made of a flexible material, and has a shape extending in a first direction. The signal line conductors are on or in the insulation substrate, and extend mainly in the first direction. The common-mode choke coil includes linear conductors on or in the insulation substrate, and is connected to the signal line conductors. The insulation substrate includes a first signal line portion in which the signal line conductors are provided, and a coil portion in which the common-mode choke coil is provided in the first direction. The insulation substrate includes a bent portion in the first signal line portion.

Transmission line component and electronic device

In a transmission line, a multilayer body includes a hollow portion above a signal conductor layer and below a ground conductor layer and overlapping the ground conductor layer when viewed in an up-down direction, and a spacer facing the hollow portion. In a cross section orthogonal to a front-back direction, an overlapping region is a region in the hollow portion in which the hollow portion overlaps the spacer in the up-down direction. In a cross section orthogonal to the front-back direction, a non-overlapping region is a region in the hollow portion in which the hollow portion does not overlap the spacer in the up-down direction. A length of the hollow portion in the up-down direction in the overlapping region is shorter than a length of the hollow portion in the up-down direction in the non-overlapping region.

Transmission line and electronic device

A transmission line includes an element body, a signal conductor layer, and a ground conductor layer. The element body includes an insulator layer. The signal conductor layer is below the insulator layer, and the ground conductor layer is above the insulator layer in an element body up-down direction. A hole is located at a surface of the insulator layer and penetrates the insulator layer in the element body up-down direction. At least a portion of the hole overlaps the signal conductor layer when viewed in the element body up-down direction. The hole extends between a left hole-defining surface and a right hole-defining surface. In a cross section orthogonal to the element body front-back direction, the left hole-defining surface includes a left upper end and a left lower end in the element body left-right direction, and the right hole-defining surface includes a right upper end and a right lower end in the element body left-right direction.

A multilayer substrate module includes a first substrate portion including a first substrate portion body including first insulator layers stacked in a vertical direction and a first conductor layer and/or a first interlayer connection conductor provided at the first substrate portion body. A second substrate portion includes a second substrate portion body including second insulator layers stacked in the vertical direction and a second conductor layer and a second interlayer connection conductor provided at the second substrate portion body, and is mounted on an upper surface of the first substrate portion. A mount device is mounted on an upper surface or a lower surface of the second substrate portion. At least a portion of an inductance component is defined by the first conductor layer and the first interlayer connection conductor.

In a transmission line, a signal conductor layer extends in a front-back direction orthogonal to an up-down direction. A ground conductor layer is above the signal conductor layer. When viewed in a first orthogonal direction, first hollow portions are arranged in the front-back direction in a first direction of the signal conductor layer, and second hollow portions are arranged in the front-back direction in a second direction of the signal conductor layer. Each of regions between adjacent first hollow portions in the front-back direction is a first region. Each of regions between adjacent second hollow portions in the front-back direction is a second region. Each of the first hollow portions overlaps with a corresponding one of the second regions when viewed in a second orthogonal direction. Each of the second hollow portions overlaps with a corresponding one of the first regions when viewed in the second orthogonal direction.

A resin multilayer substrate includes a multilayer body including resin base-material layers laminated in a thickness direction and a circuit conductor therein, an end-surface ground conductor provided directly on each end surface of the multilayer body in the thickness direction, an adhesion layer on a side surface of the multilayer body, and a side-surface ground conductor on the adhesion layer. The end-surface and side-surface ground conductors are made of a ground conductor material with a coefficient of thermal expansion whose difference from a coefficient of thermal expansion of the resin base-material layers in a plane direction is smaller than a difference from a coefficient of thermal expansion of the resin base-material layers in the thickness direction. The adhesion layer is made of a material with higher adhesiveness to the side surface of the multilayer body than adhesiveness of the ground conductor material.
