Abstract: In a circuit module, even if a transmission signal output from a transmission electrode of a mounting substrate to a transmission terminal of a splitter leaks into a ground electrode, the transmission signal that has leaked into the ground electrode is mainly transmitted along an edge of the ground electrode and the transmission signal that has leaked into the ground electrode flows into a plurality of via conductors arranged with end surfaces superposed with the edge of the ground electrode when viewed in plan. Therefore, a transmission signal that has been output from the transmission electrode and leaked into the ground electrode is prevented from traveling along the edge of the ground electrode toward the reception electrode side. As a result, isolation characteristics of the transmission electrode and the reception electrode from each other are improved.

Abstract: A via conductor connected to a mounting electrode near a corner portion of a circuit substrate is provided in a position in a corresponding mounting electrode, located closer to the center of the circuit substrate. Thus, concentration of a stress in a portion of the via conductor is effectively reduced, and a break, a chip, or a crack is prevented from occurring to the circuit substrate. Even if the portion located closer to the corner portion of the mounting electrode is peeled from the circuit substrate, the electrical characteristics of the circuit module are secured because disconnection between the corresponding mounting electrode and the via conductor is prevented.

Abstract: A method reduces an area of a mounting electrode provided on a first surface of a multilayer body and connected to a specific component is reduced and decreases a pitch between mounting electrodes. A plating film is formed on the mounting electrodes with the reduced area. The mounting electrodes for connection to specific components are defined by first end surfaces of first via conductors, and hence, the areas of the mounting electrodes are significantly reduced, and the pitch between the mounting electrodes is significantly decreased. Also, the mounting electrodes defined by the first end surfaces of the first via conductors are connected to plane electrodes at end surfaces of second via conductors exposed from a surface of the multilayer body with internal wiring electrodes interposed therebetween. Thus, a plating film is able to be reliably provided on the mounting electrodes.
