  • Publication number: 20230015749
    Abstract: A manufacturing method for an electronic component includes preparing a first composite magnetic section provided with a first composite magnetic layer and at least one marker layer disposed on the first composite magnetic layer; and preparing a second composite magnetic section provided with a second composite magnetic layer and at least one coil formed by winding a conductive wire and buried in the second composite magnetic layer with part of the coil being exposed. The manufacturing method further includes obtaining a multilayer body by disposing the first composite magnetic section so that a surface on the opposite side of the first composite magnetic section to a surface where the marker layer is disposed opposes a surface of the second composite magnetic section; and obtaining a molded body having a marker area formed with non-conductive particles pressed into the first composite magnetic layer.

  • Patent number: 10510479
    Abstract: An electronic component includes a coil, or a coiled conductor, and a molded body including a sealant containing resin and magnetic powder, and encapsulating the coil. The coil is coated with a cured product of a thermosetting composition, and the coated body is embedded in the molded body. A method of manufacturing the electronic component includes forming a coil by winding a conductor, applying a thermosetting composition on the coil, heat treating the coil on which the composition is applied to obtain a coated body, embedding the coated body into a sealant containing resin and magnetic powder, and applying pressure to the sealant to form a molded body.

  • Patent number: 10026549
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing an electronic component includes: a coil forming step of forming a winding coil by a wire-shaped conductor; a press fitting step of embedding the winding coil into a plate-shaped composite magnetic material in a state in which the plate-shaped composite magnetic material is softened, the plate-shaped composite magnetic material being a composite magnetic material that is formed in a plate shape and in which magnetic particles and a resin are mixed; a covering step of covering a part of the winding coil with another plate-shaped composite magnetic material that is softened, the part of the coil being a part remaining uncovered in the press fitting step; a pressurizing step of pressurizing and molding an entirety; and, a hardening step of hardening the composite magnetic material.
