  • Patent number: 11503714
    Abstract: A thin film board according to the present invention has a structure in which a land, which is a connection portion with a transmission line of a printed circuit board, is used as a back wiring and extends from the end to the inside of the thin film board, and the back wiring and the front wiring are connected by a through hole. In the structure of this thin film board, the land does not become a stub and does not affect the high frequency characteristics of the circuit element. That is, there is no trade-off between the connectivity between the printed circuit board and the thin film board and the high frequency characteristics of the circuit element. Therefore, the thin film board and the circuit element in which the thin film board is mounted on the printed circuit board can support high frequency electric signals up to 60 GHz.

  • Patent number: 11489600
    Abstract: In the measurement device 1, a reception sensitivity test control unit 18 ends throughput measurement of a CC using a throughput measurement unit 18b in a case where an end determination unit 18c1 determines that any of a plurality of CCs has reached a measurement end condition, and calculates a total status obtained by integrating a determination result for each CC using a total status calculation unit 18c2 by performing each “PASS” or “FAIL” determination for a remaining CC. Since an output level variable setting unit 18d performs a process of setting a next output level for the CC that has not reached the measurement end condition based on the total status, a control is performed to continue a reception sensitivity test until all CCs reach a measurement end condition.
