There is included: N (N.gtoreq.2) resonators formed by laminating a
plurality of conductor patterns and dielectric layers alternately and
arranged in an at least partially overlapped manner when viewed in the
laminating direction to be coupled electromagnetically to each other; and
input and output lines 3 and 4 coupled, respectively, to two resonators 1
and 2 selected among the N resonators, in which one end of each of the N
resonators is grounded, and the length of each of the N resonators in the
signal propagation direction is basically .lamda./4, where .lamda.
represents a propagation wavelength inside the dielectric layers at
approximately the center frequency of the pass band. A wider pass
bandwidth, size and loss reduction, and a large amount of attenuation
within a narrow band can be achieved.
