Patent attributes
An antenna that is formed of a conductor pattern is disposed on a dielectric substrate. A high-frequency semiconductor device that supplies a high-frequency signal to the antenna is mounted on the bottom surface of the dielectric substrate. A plurality of conductor columns project from the bottom surface. The conductor columns are embedded in a dielectric member that is disposed on the bottom surface. An end of each of the conductor columns is exposed through the dielectric member. The dielectric member defines a mounting surface that faces a mounting substrate. A step is formed in a side surface of a composite structure that includes the dielectric substrate and the dielectric member, and a side surface extending from the mounting surface to the step is more recessed than a side surface that is located above the step.
