Abstract: A cut via is formed in an end of a multilayer circuit board of the first transmission line, and a clearance is provided between the cut via and a ground pattern for achieving an impedance matching between the first and second transmission lines. The cut via of a first transmission line which may be a stripline or a microstrip line, and an electrode of the second transmission line are connected to each other, and ground patterns of the first and second transmission lines are connected to each other. The first and second transmission lines have respective signal lines positioned substantially coaxially with each other.

Abstract: A magnetic sensor has a monotonic response to high-frequency magnetic strengths in a frequency range up to superhigh frequencies. The magnetic sensor includes a shielded loop coil having a triplate stripline structure. The shielded loop coil has one-turn looped ground patterns formed respectively in a first layer and a fifth layer and connected parallel to each other by a via, and has an inductance L. The one-turn looped ground patterns have end electrodes facing each other across gaps, one of the end electrodes including the via, providing a combined capacitor operable at high frequencies and having a capacitance C. The product L×C of the inductance L and the capacitance C is 2.5×10?20 or less and the maximum outer circumference length of the one-turn looped ground lines is 50 [mm] or less.
