  • Publication number: 20200365314
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a coil component having terminal electrodes with high mounting strength, includes: embedding an air-core coil in complex magnetic material being a mixture of resin and metal magnetic grains, molding the magnetic material so that both ends of the coil are exposed on its surface, curing the resin in the molding, thereby obtaining a magnetic body in which the coil is embedded, polishing and etching a surface where the ends of the coil are exposed, sputtering metal material onto an etched surface of the magnetic body, thereby forming an underlying layer across a surface of the magnetic body and ends of the coil, and then forming a cover layer that covers an outer side of the underlying layer, thereby forming terminal electrodes constituted by the underlying layer and cover layer.

  • Patent number: 10770221
    Abstract: A coil component includes an air-core coil embedded in a magnetic body constituted by resin and metal magnetic grains. Both ends of the coil are exposed on the surface of the magnetic body, and the side on which both ends are exposed is polished and etched to form terminal electrodes. To be specific, an underlying layer of metal material is formed across the surface of the magnetic body and the ends by means of sputtering, and then a cover layer is formed. Where the magnetic body contacts the underlying layer, the areas where the underlying layer is in contact with the resin ensure insulation, while the contact between the underlying layer and the exposed parts of the metal magnetic grains ensures adhesion, thus increasing the adhesion strength with respect to the terminal electrodes.
