Abstract: A non-reciprocal circuit device has a length, a width, and a thickness denoted respectively by L1, L2, and L3, and the overall dimensions of 2.5 mm<L1<7.0 mm, 2.5 mm<L2<7.0 mm, and 1.0 mm<L3<3.5 mm. When a projected area of the substrate of the device is orthogonally projected on a plane parallel to a base surface of the substrate is denoted by S1, the substrate holds a proportional relation to S1/(L1×L2)=0.1 to 0.78. When a thickness of the magnet of the device is denoted by L4, the magnet holds a proportional relation of L4/L3=0.2 to 0.5. When a projected area of the magnet orthogonally formed on a plane parallel to a surface of the magnet is denoted by S2, they have a proportional relation of S1/S2=0.15 to 0.83.

Abstract: A compact non-reciprocal circuit device capable of handling a high power without impairment of the characteristics. The non-reciprocal circuit device contains a magnetic substrate that exhibits anisotropic behavior by application of a direct-current magnetic field. On the surface of the substrate, strip-lines are disposed at an angle, being insulated with each other. One end of each strip-line is grounded, and the other end of each is connected through a capacitor to a ground. Of the ends connecting the capacitors, one end connects to a termination resistor; the remaining ends connect each to an input terminal and an output terminal. The non-reciprocal circuit device exhibits non-reciprocal characteristics between the input and output terminals. The case of the device contains an insulating thermal conductor that serves as a heat-radiator for the termination resistor and the strip-lines.
