  • Patent number: 8072303
    Abstract: An inductor is arranged such that the projection area of each terminal portion falls within a square circumscribing the projection area of an upper flange portion under a state where the inductor is projected orthogonally in the direction of the axis. Projection area of each end of a winding connected to the joint of the terminal portions also falls within the square. Consequently, an installation space can be secured easily on a board, and a space saving inductor in which a space for installation of other components can be secured easily on the periphery can be obtained.
