One end is connected to a reference potential source (that is, ground), and a line (1/4 short stub) having a length of 1/4 of the wavelength of the used signal frequency is inserted. And As a result, the potential of the signal line is almost short-circuited to ground in a DC or low-frequency region other than a predetermined signal frequency (that is, grounded), and a high impedance that is open to a signal of a predetermined use frequency is generated. Since the antenna enters the antenna in parallel, the static electricity and unnecessary noise waves from the antenna side are effectively all grounded, do not reach the MMIC or the semiconductor element, and have little effect on the intended high-frequency signal. The configuration reaches the MMIC and the semiconductor element.

3 are provided in parallel, and when viewed at the frequency of a predetermined signal to be used, the impedance of that portion is substantially as large as that in the open state, and it is insensitive to other signals and noise at other frequencies. In this case, the impedance is substantially as low as a short circuit to the ground. Although the figure shows a case where an inductance element is used,
In such a case, by designing the impedance to be low with respect to a noise input having a frequency lower than a predetermined signal frequency, it is possible to effectively prevent an adverse effect due to static electricity charged to a person who handles the electronic device. be able to.

It is preferable because it functions effectively in all directions without any direction dependency on radio waves. In particular, in a high-frequency signal processing device such as a millimeter wave, it is preferable because it can be easily assembled together with the MMIC.

Means that high impedance close to open enters in parallel, so that static electricity and unnecessary waves from the antenna side fall to the ground substantially, do not reach the MMIC or semiconductor element, and have little effect on the target high-frequency signal. It is possible to adopt a configuration that does not provide. For this reason, extremely strong and highly reliable RF
