Abstract: An electronic component comprises an insulator substrate (11), a layered member composed of a plurality of insulator resin layers (12a-12f) and a plurality of conductor pattern layers (13a-13f) alternately stacked on the insulator substrate to form a first conductor line and a second conductor line each of which comprises at least one conductor layer, first and second external electrode terminal portions connected to opposite ends of the first conductor line and covering first and second areas of side surfaces of said layered member and the insulator substrate, respectively, and a third external electrode terminal portion connected to one end of the second conductor line and covering a third area of the side surfaces of the layered member and the insulator substrate. The second conductor lines have magnetic and electrocapacitive coupling with respect to the first conductor line.

Abstract: This invention is a plated steel sheet formed by laminating an iron oxide layer and a plated layer on a steel matrix in this order, in which excellent plating adhesion property can uniformly be given to a full surface of the steel sheet by disposing a connection portion made from a metallic iron or an iron alloy connecting the steel matrix to the plated layer in the iron oxide layer. Particularly, it can provide means for easily forming a plated layer having an excellent adhesion property through hot dipping can be given to steel sheets being difficult to conduct the hot dipping such as high-strength steel sheet, stainless steel sheet and the like.

Abstract: A process for producing plated steel sheet comprises the steps of heating a steel slab containing not more than 0.5 wt % C to the temperature range not lower than the transformation point Ac.sub.3, and jetting high-pressure water to the surface of a steel sheet at a discharge pressure of 300 kgf/cm.sup.2 or more at least once during hot rough rolling and hot finish rolling, thereby removing a layer of iron oxide on the surface of the steel sheet. The steel sheet is thereafter coiled while keeping a finishing delivery temperature of the steel sheet in the range of 500-800.degree. C., reducing the layer of iron oxide on the surface of the steel sheet at 50-98 % in an annealing furnace with the temperature of the steel sheet held in the range of 750-900.degree. C., and plating the steel sheet. With the process of the invention, plated steel plates having superior workability and plating adhesion can be produced at low cost, even when cold rolling and pickling are omitted from the production steps.
