Patent number: 11276521Abstract: An electronic component includes a multilayer body including dielectric layers, a circuit pattern, and band-shaped conductor patterns. The circuit pattern includes a conductor pattern that is disposed inside the multilayer body and defines an inductor. The band-shaped conductor patterns are grounded and cover a portion of a shield surface. An internal surface is located between the circuit pattern and an upper surface. On a shield surface, a non-shielded area is provided which is not covered with any of the band-shaped conductor patterns, and through which magnetic flux generated from the inductor is able to pass.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2019Date of Patent: March 15, 2022Assignee: MURATA MANUFACTURING CO., LTD.Inventors: Kunihiro Miyahara, Yutaka Masuda, Kanta Motoki, Shoji Nagumo
