  • Patent number: 6377151
    Abstract: A chip inductor has a coiled conducting wire and a magnetic core which is formed by sintering and in which the coiled conducting wire is embedded. Both end portions of the coiled conducting wire are exposed to both end surfaces of the magnetic core in an arcuate or similar shape. External electrodes are coated on both the end surfaces of the magnetic core and are connected to both end portions of the coiled conducting wire.

  • Patent number: 6348850
    Abstract: A common mode choke coil adapted for surface mount applications minimized in overall size (particularly in height), with an improved bonding coefficient. This common mode choke coil has a structure comprising a ferrite core consisting of a winding core and two square planar flanges with recesses formed therein, the square planar flanges being formed integrally on each end of a winding core thereof, a pair of external electrodes disposed on the square planar flanges, a plurality of windings wound about the winding core of the ferrite core and connected by thermal bonding to the external electrodes at the recesses provided in the left and right sides of each flange, and a ferrite plate adhesively bonded to the outermost surface of the windings to join the two flanges at both ends of the ferrite core, without an adhesive bonding to the flanges themselves. As a result, a closed magnetic circuit structure of a cubic component having a high rate of bonding coefficient is obtained.

  • Publication number: 20010038327
    Abstract: A wound type common mode choke coil resulting in a tip shape finished product is provided, having a good appearance, high reliability, and excellent common mode characteristics, by reducing the profile of the common mode component. This wound type common mode choke coil has a magnetic core with square collar portions at both ends of a winding core, grooves in the square collars, first electrodes, a pair of coil conductors wound around the winding core portion connected conductively to the first electrode layers of the collar portions, a non-magnetic first insulation coating layer coating the outer circumference of the magnetic core, a second insulation coating layer containing magnetic power armor-coated to the whole outer circumference of the common mode choke coil, and second electrode layers coating from the groove portions over the first electrode layers.
