Abstract
A dielectric filter and a dielectric duplexer, which obviate the need to change the design of a circuit board when the dielectric filter or the dielectric duplexer are to be changed and in which the degree of freedom of design is improved, and a communication apparatus using them are constructed. Resonator holes having internal conductor formed on the respective inner surfaces thereof, and excitation holes are provided in a dielectric block, and electrodes and an external conductor are formed on the outer surface of the dielectric block. The positions of input/output coupling electrodes on the mounting surface with respect to the circuit board are aligned with the positions of the input/output coupling electrodes on the circuit board. At least one of the electrodes provided on the opening surfaces of the resonator holes is disposed in a direction which is not perpendicular to the mounting surface.
