ABSTRACT:
In a circuit module for a high frequency, a resistance film is formed on a side of a semiconductor circuit chip, mounted above a dielectric substrate through ground metal layers, opposite to the dielectric substrate. A distance from the ground metal layer to the resistance film is a ¼ wavelength at a predetermined frequency, and the resistance film has a sheet resistance equal to a characteristic impedance of air. A second dielectric substrate with the metal layer formed on a side opposite to the resistance film can be mounted. When being adhered to the second dielectric substrate, the resistance film has a characteristic impedance determined by a permittivity of a material of the semiconductor circuit chip. When being formed in space from the semiconductor circuit chip, the resistance film has a sheet resistance equal to a characteristic impedance of air. The thickness of the second dielectric substrate is a ¼ wavelength in a desired frequency.
