Abstract: A probe whose characteristic impedance can be accurately adjusted to a desired value with the production of a small number of prototypes. The probe includes a first line with a signal terminal to be connected to a signal electrode of a circuit to be measured and at least one first region connected to the signal terminal and to which one end of a chip capacitor is connected, a second line connected to a terminal of the first line and a junction to be connected to a measuring instrument at the remaining terminal, and an impedance matched to a characteristic impedance of the measuring instrument, a ground connector with a ground terminal to be connected to the ground electrode of the circuit to be measured, and at least one second region connected to the ground terminal and on which the remaining terminal of the chip capacitor is mounted in one-to-one correspondence with the first region.

Abstract: Provided is a probe whose characteristic impedance can be accurately adjusted to the desired value with the production of a small number of prototypes.

Abstract: An output side electrode of a surface acoustic wave matched filter with portions having different delay times between taps. The output side electrode may be provided by arranging parallelly a plurality of output side electrodes having different scales, different tap distances, or by forming output side electrodes in an inclined fashion or in a dog-leg shape viewed in a direction of an aperture length, or by arranging, between electrode fingers, thin films having different dimensions or thicknesses viewed in the direction of the aperture length, or by forming, between electrode fingers, recessed portions having different dimension or depth viewed in the direction of the aperture length.
