(Prior Art) A conventional circulator is shown in FIG. In the figure, 1
2 is a thin film strip line provided on the ferrimagnetic substrate 1 by vapor deposition and etching; 3 is a thin film ground conductor provided on the back surface of the ferrimagnetic substrate 1 by vapor deposition; 4 indicates a magnet. In this example, in which the strip line and ground conductor are formed by vapor deposition on a ferrite substrate, the ferrite substrate can be used as part of the input/output line, and only one magnet is needed on one side of the ferrite substrate. , it can be made smaller and lighter. However, the dielectric loss of the ferrite substrate is larger than that of the ceramic substrate, and the IJ tube line is formed by vapor deposition directly on the surface of the ferrite substrate, which has relatively poor surface roughness.
When operated as a circulator, the forward insertion loss between the input and output terminals deteriorates.

In addition, since the thickness of the ferrite substrate is related to the operating frequency, it becomes impossible to standardize the height of the circulator's input/output terminals, and it is difficult to optimize impedance matching with adjacent modules connected to the circulator. There was also a drawback.
