Abstract

Abstract A coaxial microstrip line transducer, in which an inner conductor has a center conductor portion arranged in a recess portion of a resin case and a terminal portion is integral with the center conductor portion and so formed as to lead to a lower surface of the resin case, and an outer conductor having a first conductor portion arranged along at least a part of an inner peripheral surface of the recess portion and a second conductor portion which is integral with the first conductor portion and extends to the lower surface via an upper surface and a pair of side surfaces opposed to each other of the resin case. The inner and outer conductors are fixed to the resin case.
