Abstract: There are provided a magnetic element capable of enhancing magnetic permeability of a magnetic member, improving a direct current superposition characteristic, and improving production efficiency and a method of manufacturing the magnetic element. The magnetic element includes a coil (30) formed of a conductor having an insulating film, a first core member (20) constituted of insulative soft magnetic ferrite and covering the coil (30), and a second core member (50) having soft magnetic metal powder as material and surrounded by the first core member (20). Furthermore, the magnetic element includes a third core member (40) which has soft magnetic metal powder as material and a higher filling ratio of the soft magnetic metal powder than the second core member 50 and is surrounded by the first core member (20).

Abstract: The superimposition characteristics are improved in an inductance device provided with coils having sections with different numbers of windings. The inductance device includes a ring-shaped coil having n winding section 31 in which the number of windings is n and n+1, magnetic circuit materials mounted within and without the ring of aforementioned coil through which magnetic flux is passed to form a magnetic circuit, and a magnetic gap that blocks either the magnetic flux that was formed so as to surround aforementioned n winding section 31 or the magnetic flux that was formed so as to surround aforementioned n+1 winding section 32.
