- the circuit board 10e is different from the circuit board 10 in the structure of the plurality of first thick wire portions 224.
- the line width w2 of the plurality of first thick line portions 224 becomes smaller as it approaches both ends (front end and rear end) of the first section 22b. Since the other structures of the circuit board 10e are the same as those of the circuit board 10, the description thereof will be omitted.
- the circuit board 10e it is possible to suppress a sudden change in the characteristic impedance generated in the first signal conductor layer 22. As a result, the reflection of the high frequency signal is suppressed in the first signal conductor layer 22, and the insertion loss of the first signal conductor layer 22 is reduced.

It is preferably not more than half the wavelength of the high frequency signal transmitted through the layer 22. However, the sum of the length l1 in the front-rear direction of the signal conductor layer of the first thin wire portion 222 and the length l2 in the front-back direction of the signal conductor layer of the first thick wire portion 224 is the sum of the length l2 of the high frequency signal transmitted through the first signal conductor layer 22. It may be longer than half the wavelength.

以下に、本発明の実施形態に係る回路基板10について図面を参照しながら説明する。
回路基板10によれば、第1信号導体層22と第2信号導体層24との距離が短くなった場合であっても、第1信号導体層22と第2信号導体層24との結合を抑制できる。より詳細には、図1に示すように、回路基板10が電子部品4と接触することを回避したい場合がある。このような場合、基板本体12の左右方向の中間部における基板本体12の左右方向の幅は、基板本体12の左右方向の中間部以外の部分における基板本体12の左右方向の幅より細くなる。そのため、基板本体12の左右方向の中間部では、第1信号導体層22と第2信号導体層24との距離が短くなる。すなわち、基板本体12の左右方向の中間部では、第1区間22bと第3区間24bとは、信号導体層前後方向に並走している。このような場合、第1区間22bと第3区間24bとが結合しやすくなる。そのため、第1信号導体層22と第2信号導体層24とのアイソレーションが低下しやすくなる。
