Abstract: An inductor 10 has a magnetic body 11 of a rectangular solid shape and a coil 12 embedded in the magnetic body 11. The coil 12 integrally has a part constituted by a helically wound coil wire, two leader parts 12a provided at the two ends of the wound part, and terminal parts 13 connected to the ends of the leader parts and wider than the leader parts 12a, where the boundary between each leader part 12a and each terminal part 13 is positioned in the magnetic body 11, and the end of each terminal part 13 is exposed from the corresponding side face of the magnetic body 11 and folded in an L shape along the side face and bottom face.

Abstract: A device includes: a pillar-shaped core consisting of a first magnetic insulating material that has two quadric prism segments at both ends thereof symmetrically and has a cylindrical segment, which has an external shape smaller than that of the quadric prism segments, coaxially between the two quadric prism segments; a resistance film that is formed in a substantially uniform thickness so as to cover an outer circumferential face of the pillar-shaped core; a spiral line segment having a predetermined number of circumferences that is formed in a portion present on the cylindrical segment of the resistance film by subjecting a spiral sulcus to laser trimming; an oxide film that is formed to cover at least a surface of a shoulder portion extending from a side to an upper surface of lines constituting the spiral line segment; an armor consisting of a second magnetic insulating material that is formed to cover a surface of the portion present on the cylindrical segment of the resistance film and such that an exte
