In a coil component, heat radiation around a through conductor is improved. In the coil component, since the cross-sectional area of the inner end portion of the planar coil is designed to be relatively large, heat generated in the through conductor is easily transferred to the inner end portion. Since heat is efficiently transferred from the through conductor to the inner end portion, high heat radiation around the through conductor is achieved.

An electronic component includes a magnetic body containing magnetic metal powder; and external electrodes disposed on an outer portion of the magnetic body. The external electrodes include first plating layers in direct contact with the magnetic body.

An electronic component, such as, for example, an inductor, includes a core defining an axis and a conductor that is at least partially wound about the core.

Disclosed are a transfer-molded inductor and a manufacturing method thereof. The inductor comprises a magnet formed by transfer molding with a soft magnetic colloid; and a prefabricated coil assembly comprising an air-core coil and electrode sheets connected at two ends of the air-core coil. The method comprises steps of: connecting a prefabricated air-core coil and an electrode sheet by welding to form a coil assembly, and placing the coil assembly in a cavity of a mold; performing transfer molding with a soft magnetic colloid in a gelatinous state so that the coil is entirely buried in the colloid while the electrode sheets at two ends of the air-core coil are at least partially exposed outside the colloid to serve as terminal electrodes; and performing demolding after the colloid is cured to form a magnet, and finishing the terminal electrodes to obtain the inductor.

A coil component includes a body and a coil conductor embedded in the body. The body includes a magnetic layer and a non-magnetic layer. The magnetic layer is formed of a composite material including a metal particle and a resin material, and the non-magnetic layer is arranged not to extend through a winding portion of the coil conductor or not to entirely extend through the body.

A coil component includes: a coil embedded in a substrate body and having a winding part constituted by a wound conductor; wherein the substrate body has: a first region sandwiched between one end surface of the substrate body and a plane parallel with the one end surface and running through a portion of a first external electrode farthest away from the one end surface; a second region sandwiched between another end of the substrate body and a plane parallel with the another end surface and running through a portion of a second external electrode farthest away from the another end surface; and a third region between the first region and the second region; and the winding part is provided in the third region, and also in the first region where it is wound by one turn or more.
