A stacked resonator and a filter are provided which are capable of achieving miniaturization and minimum loss, and also capable of transmitting a balanced signal with superior balance characteristics. There are provided a pair of quarter-wave resonators which are interdigital-coupled to each other. One quarter-wave resonator is constructed of a plurality of conductor lines which are stacked and arranged so as to establish a comb-line coupling. By the stacked arrangement so as to establish a comb-line coupling of the plurality of conductor lines, the conductor thickness of this quarter-wave resonator can be increased virtually thereby reducing the conductor loss. Similarly, the other quarter-wave resonator is constructed of a plurality of conductor lines stacked and arranged so as to establish a comb-line coupling, and hence the conductor thickness of this quarter-wave resonator can be increased virtually thereby reducing the conductor loss.
