Publication number: 20230402216Abstract: A coil includes a plurality of coil conductors. The coil includes a plurality of connection portions each at which adjacent coil conductors of the plurality of coil conductors are electrically connected to each other and the adjacent coil conductors overlap each other. The plurality of connection portions include a first connection portion and a second connection portion that is farther from an electrode portion on a main surface than the first connection portion. A second area where the adjacent coil conductors overlap each other in the second connection portion is larger than a first area where the adjacent coil conductors overlap each other in the first connection portion.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 16, 2023Publication date: December 14, 2023Applicant: TDK CORPORATIONInventors: Yuto SHIGA, So KOBAYASHI, Youichi KAZUTA, Yuichi TAKUBO, Xuran GUO

Publication number: 20230326661Abstract: The mainline pattern and the pair of bypass patterns in the multilayer inductor can be regarded as three inductors connected in parallel in the element body. That is, in the multilayer inductor, paralleling of the inductance is realized in the element body by the mainline pattern and the pair of bypass patterns. Therefore, the inductance value of the multilayer inductor as a whole can be reduced.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 22, 2023Publication date: October 12, 2023Applicant: TDK CORPORATIONInventors: Noriaki HAMACHI, Toshinori MATSUURA, Junichiro URABE, Kazuya TOBITA, Yuto SHIGA, Youichi KAZUTA, Yuichi TAKUBO, Shunya SUZUKI, Xuran GUO, So KOBAYASHI

Publication number: 20230317360Abstract: In the multilayer inductor, the extending direction of the connection portion is a direction along the turn portion when viewed from the extending direction of the coil axis. In this case, the change of the current route at the junction portion between the turn portion and the connection portion becomes gentle. Therefore, the signal loss at the junction portion is reduced, a high Q value can be achieved.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 22, 2023Publication date: October 5, 2023Applicant: TDK CORPORATIONInventors: Kazuya TOBITA, Xuran GUO, Youichi KAZUTA, Yuichi TAKUBO, Yuto SHIGA, So KOBAYASHI, Toshinori MATSUURA, Noriaki HAMACHI, Junichiro URABE, Shunya SUZUKI
