  • Publication number: 20240145153
    Abstract: An inductor component includes a base body including an insulator, an inductor wire extending inside the base body, extended electrodes connected to the inductor wire, each of the extended electrodes having a portion exposed to outside of the base body, and outer electrodes connected to respective ones of the extended electrodes. The base body, inductor wire, and extended electrodes form a component body. When a first sectional area is defined as an area of a section of the component body taken along a plane parallel to the bottom surface of the component body at an arbitrary position and when a second sectional area is defined as an area of another section of the component body taken along another plane parallel to the bottom surface closer to the bottom surface from the arbitrary position, the second sectional area is equal to or greater than the first sectional area.

  • Publication number: 20240055174
    Abstract: An inductor component includes a substantially rectangular parallelepiped device body including a first lateral surface and includes a coil conductor layer formed into a spiral wound more than one turn on a main surface parallel to the first lateral surface inside the device body. In the coil conductor layer, a wiring spacing between two wiring portions adjacent to each other (straight portions) in a first direction from an inner side portion to an outer side portion of the coil conductor layer differs from a wiring spacing of two wiring portions adjacent to each other (curved portions) in a second direction from the inner side portion to the outer side portion of the coil conductor layer, the second direction differing from the first direction.

  • Patent number: 9984808
    Abstract: An electronic component includes a substantially helix-shaped inductor including inductive conductor layers on insulator layers including a first inductive conductor layer and a second inductive conductor layer adjacent to the first inductive conductor layer on the upper layer side. Each of the first and second inductive conductor layers has a contact portion and a linear portion. The contact portion is, when viewed in the laminating direction, overlapped by an inductive conductor layer adjacent thereto on the lower or upper layer side. The linear portion is not overlapped by inductive conductor layers adjacent thereto on the lower and upper layer sides. The lower surface of the linear portion of the second inductive conductor layer is positioned higher than that of the first inductive conductor layer, and is positioned lower than the upper surface of the linear portion of the first inductive conductor layer.
