Abstract

Disclosed is a low-pass filter connected to a capacitor by a T-junction and used for a multiplexer. The low-pass filter includes: a plurality of capacitor elements which is formed of a capacitive conductor of a disk shape; and a plurality of inductor elements which connects the capacitor elements to each other and is formed in a rod shape. The plurality of capacitor elements and the plurality of inductor elements are alternately arranged, and the capacitor element which is connected to the capacitor has a capacitance value smaller than a capacitance value which is determined by a cut-off frequency of the low-pass filter.

Claims

1. A low-pass filter connected to a capacitor by a T-junction and used for a multiplexer, the low-pass filter comprising:

a plurality of capacitor elements which is formed of a capacitive conductor of a disk shape; and

a plurality of inductor elements which connects the capacitor elements to each other and is formed in a rod shape,

wherein the plurality of capacitor elements and the plurality of inductor elements are alternately arranged, and

wherein the capacitor element which is connected to the capacitor has a capacitance value smaller than a capacitance value which is determined by a cut-off frequency of the low-pass filter.

2. The low-pass filter of claim 1, wherein one end and the other end of the low-pass filter are configured with the capacitor elements.

3. The low-pass filter of claim 2, wherein a capacitance value of the capacitor element on the one end or the other end of the plurality of capacitor elements is smaller than capacitance values of the other capacitor elements by forming the capacitor element on the one end or the other end of the plurality of capacitor elements differently in size, diameter, or shape from the other capacitor elements.

4. The low-pass filter of claim 3, wherein the capacitor element on the one end or the other end of the plurality of capacitor elements has a slope, which has a protrusion in the center, on one side.
