A bandpass filter includes a dielectric substrate, a resonator electrode that
is
provided on a portion of a plane at an intermediate height in the thickness direction
of the dielectric substrate so as to oppose the top face of the dielectric substrate
and includes an aperture, first and second ground electrodes provided over and
under the resonator electrode, respectively, so as to oppose the resonator electrode
with dielectric layers disposed therebetween and so as to sandwich the resonator
electrode, input-output coupling electrodes coupled to the resonator electrode,
input-output terminal electrodes that are provided on the outside surface of the
dielectric substrate and are electrically connected to the input-output coupling
electrodes, and a via-hole electrode that penetrates through the aperture in the
thickness direction of the dielectric substrate so as not to be electrically connected
to the resonator electrode and is electrically connected to the first and second
ground electrodes.
