Abstract
A dielectric filter is formed from a block of ceramic material with holes extending from a top surface toward a bottom surface. At least the bottom, both ends and one side surface are coated with conductive material. Also, the interior surfaces of the holes are coated with conductive material to form transmission line resonators. The uncoated side surface has an electrode pattern which allows coupling to the filter and between resonators of the filter. The elevation of the electrodes on the side surface between the top and bottom determines whether the coupling is capacitive, mixed inductive and capacitive, or inductive.
