  • Publication number: 20190006071
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a coil component includes an insulator part and a coil part. The insulator part is constituted by an electrical insulation material, and is no more than 600 ?m long and no more than 600 ?m high. The coil part is wound around one axis and placed inside the insulator part. The coil part has an opening part constituted by straight line parts and curved line parts and whose shape as viewed from the one axis direction is an approximate rectangle, wherein the line length of the curved line parts along the inner periphery of the opening part is no more than 40% of the line length of the inner periphery of the opening part. The coil component can satisfy both a size reduction need and the properties need.

  • Publication number: 20180374621
    Abstract: One object is to provide an electronic component in which a standoff for filling solder is maintained. An electronic component according to an embodiment of the present invention is configured to be surface-mountable on a circuit board. The electronic component includes: an insulating base member; an internal conductor provided in the base member; a first external electrode provided on the mounting surface of the base member so as to be electrically connected to the internal conductor; and a second external electrode provided on the mounting surface of the base member so as to be electrically connected to the internal conductor. The first external electrode has a first protrusion, and the second external electrode has a second protrusion. The first protrusion and the second protrusion enables a standoff for filling solder to be maintained within a region defined by the mounting surface of the base member and the circuit board.

  • Publication number: 20170345558
    Abstract: One object of the present invention is to provide a compact coil component with superior characteristics. An electronic component according one embodiment includes an insulator and a coil portion. The insulator is formed of a non-magnetic material. The insulator includes a width direction in a first axial direction, a length direction in a second axial direction, and a height direction in a third axial direction. The coil portion includes a circumference section. The circumference section is wound around the first axial direction. The coil portion is arranged inside the insulator. The first ratio of a height to a length of the insulator is 1.5 times or less of a second ratio of a height between first inner peripheral portions of the circumference section along the third axial direction with respect to a length between second inner peripheral portions of the circumference section along the second axial direction.
