Abstract
A method is disclosed which allows the electrical characteristics of a microstrip line filter or the like to be reliably measured using a two-dimensional measuring jig, even if components thereof to be measured are small in size and are not discrete components. A first ground electrode is formed substantially over the entire bottom surface of a dielectric substrate, and resonator electrodes are disposed on the top surface of the dielectric substrate. Input/output electrodes are each connected to a first-stage resonator electrode and a last-stage resonator electrode. Second ground electrodes conductively connected to the first ground electrode are disposed beside each of the input/output electrodes. By this structure, each of the input/output portions is provided with a grounded coplanar guide configuration.
