Publication number: 20230072929Abstract: In the coil component, external stress applied when the upper coil structure, the lower coil structure, and the magnetic sheet are stacked is dispersed by the undulation of both main surfaces of the magnetic sheet. By dispersing the stress in this manner, a situation in which defects such as cracks occur in the coil structure is effectively suppressed.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 30, 2022Publication date: March 9, 2023Applicant: TDK CORPORATIONInventors: Hokuto EDA, Hitoshi OHKUBO, Masazumi ARATA, Masataro SAITO, Kohei TAKAHASHI, Takamasa IWASAKI

Publication number: 20230066655Abstract: In the coil component, since the contact area between the external terminal electrode and the element body is increased by the protrusion of the external terminal electrode, the external terminal electrode and the element body are more closely attached to each other. Therefore, the attachment strength between the external terminal electrode and the element body can be improved. Hence, it is possible to suppress peeling of the external terminal electrode from the element body.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 22, 2022Publication date: March 2, 2023Applicant: TDK CORPORATIONInventors: Hokuto EDA, Hitoshi OHKUBO, Masazumi ARATA, Masataro SAITO, Kohei TAKAHASHI, Takamasa IWASAKI, Manabu OHTA, Kenei ONUMA

Publication number: 20230063602Abstract: In the coil component, the coupling coefficient can be adjusted by the magnetic sheet and the insulator interposed between the pair of coils. For example, by increasing the magnetic permeability of the magnetic sheet so that the magnetic flux generated in the coil easily passes through the magnetic sheet, the coupling coefficient decreases. In the coil component, the coupling coefficient can be adjusted while the thickness of the element body is suppressed.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 30, 2022Publication date: March 2, 2023Applicants: TDK CORPORATION, TDK CORPORATIONInventors: Hokuto EDA, Hitoshi OHKUBO, Masazumi ARATA, Masataro SAITO, Kohei TAKAHASHI, Takamasa IWASAKI

Publication number: 20230063586Abstract: Since the magnetic sheet is adopted as the coil component, magnetic saturation is likely to occur in the magnetic sheet, and it is considered that the DC superimposition characteristic of the coil component is deteriorated. However, since the inner edge of the coil structure backs down with respect to the inner edge of the magnetic sheet so that the magnetic flux generated in the coil easily circulates, the deterioration of the DC superimposition characteristics due to the adoption of the magnetic sheet is suppressed.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 30, 2022Publication date: March 2, 2023Applicant: TDK CORPORATIONInventors: Hokuto EDA, Hitoshi OHKUBO, Masazumi ARATA, Masataro SAITO, Kohei TAKAHASHI, Takamasa IWASAKI

Publication number: 20230022189Abstract: In a coil component, heat radiation around a through conductor is improved. In the coil component, since the cross-sectional area of the inner end portion of the planar coil is designed to be relatively large, heat generated in the through conductor is easily transferred to the inner end portion. Since heat is efficiently transferred from the through conductor to the inner end portion, high heat radiation around the through conductor is achieved.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 18, 2022Publication date: January 26, 2023Applicant: TDK CORPORATIONInventors: Hokuto EDA, Hitoshi OHKUBO, Masazumi ARATA, Masataro SAITO, Kohei TAKAHASHI, Takamasa IWASAKI

Publication number: 20220415566Abstract: An electronic component preventing peeling of an external terminal is provided. Since each of the external terminal electrodes on the upper face has a U-shaped outline, stress concentration is less likely to occur at an inner end portion than in the external terminal electrode having a corner at the inner end portion. Therefore, for example, even when an impact is applied, a situation in which the external terminal electrode peels off from the upper face due to stress concentration is prevented.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 21, 2022Publication date: December 29, 2022Applicant: TDK CORPORATIONInventors: Hokuto EDA, Hitoshi OHKUBO, Masazumi ARATA, Masataro SAITO, Kohei TAKAHASHI, Takamasa IWASAKI, Manabu OHTA, Kenei ONUMA
