Disclosed herein is a coil component that includes a coil part having a structure in which a plurality of conductor layers each having a coil pattern are stacked in a coil axis direction through a plurality of interlayer insulating films, a first magnetic layer covering the coil part in the coil axis direction, and a second magnetic layer positioned in an inner diameter area of the coil part. The plurality of interlayer insulating films include a first interlayer insulating film positioned closest to the first magnetic layer. The first and second magnetic layers contact each other through an opening formed in the first interlayer insulating film. The opening has a shape whose diameter increases as a distance from an interface between the first and second magnetic layers increases.

A multilayer substrate includes a stacked body of insulating base material layers and conductor patterns on the insulating base material layers. A thickness adjustment base material layer includes a frame portion, an opening portion inside the frame portion, and an island shaped portion inside the frame portion, and connection portions to connect the island shaped portion to the frame portion. The conductor patterns, in a stacking direction of the insulating base material layers, are wound around the island shaped portion. A line width of the connection portions is smaller than the width of the island shaped portion connected to the frame portion through the connection portions. An area overlapped with the conductor patterns is larger in the opening portion than in the frame portion and the island shaped portion.

A coil electronic component includes a magnetic body having an internal coil part embedded therein, in which the internal coil part includes an insulating substrate, a first insulator, a coil conductor, and a second insulator. The first insulator is disposed on at least one of first and second main surfaces of the insulating substrate and has a groove formed therein. The coil conductor is formed inside the groove. The second insulator encloses the insulating substrate, the first insulator, and the coil conductor. The first insulator may be formed to a thickness larger than (and no more than 40 μm thicker than) a thickness of the coil conductor on the insulating substrate. The first insulator may be formed to a width of 3 μm to 50 μm. Further, the second insulator may extend to a thickness 1 μm to 20 μm larger than that of the first insulator on the insulating substrate.

The invention relates to a field coil (18, 20), in particular for a satellite hall-effect plasma thruster, said field coil (18, 20) comprising a core (22) on which a conductor (24) is wound, characterized in that the conductor comprises an inorganic insulation cable (26) impregnated with a high-temperature-resistant silicone coating (32).

A coil component includes a body including first to fourth side surfaces and one surface and the other surface connected to each of the first to fourth side surfaces and opposing each other in a first direction, a distance between the one surface and the other surface in the first direction being 440 μm or less, and a coil disposed in the body, wherein a thickness of the coil in the first direction is shorter than a minimum distance from the one surface of the body to the coil, and a minimum distance from the coil to the first to fourth side surfaces of the body is 40 μm or greater.

In an exemplary embodiment, a coil component includes: an element body part 10 and a coil 30 of spiral shape constituted by multiple turn units 32 connected in a coil axial direction; wherein each turn unit 32 has, in a cross-sectional view in the width direction of the turn unit 32, a flat side 40 that extends in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the coil axis of the coil 30; and the point of intersection 48 between a figure line 42 corresponding to the longest part in a first direction, and a figure line 44 corresponding to the longest part in the second direction, with respect to the coil axis, is positioned on the figure line 42 within one-quarter of the figure line away from one end 50 on the side 40 or from the other end 52 opposing the side 40.

A multilayer coil component includes an element body and a plurality of coil conductors. The element body includes a plurality of metal magnetic particles and resin existing between the plurality of metal magnetic particles. The plurality of coil conductors is disposed in the element body, the plurality of coil conductors being separated from each other in a predetermined direction and electrically connected to each other. The plurality of metal magnetic particles included in the element body includes a plurality of metal magnetic particles having a particle size equal to or greater than one third of a distance between the coil conductors adjacent to each other in the predetermined direction and equal to or less than a half of the distance. Between the coil conductors adjacent to each other in the predetermined direction, the metal magnetic particles having the particle size are distributed along the predetermined direction.

A system and a method for predicting a remaining useful life of a transformer are provided. The system includes the transformer and a processing device. The transformer includes a liquid insulating material and a solid insulating material. The processing device is configured to establish, through a machine learning method, a life prediction model based on status data and corresponding life loss data of the liquid insulating material and the solid insulating material, and the processing device uses the life prediction model to predict the remaining useful life of the transformer based on operating data of the transformer.

In the coil component, since the contact area between the external terminal electrode and the element body is increased by the protrusion of the external terminal electrode, the external terminal electrode and the element body are more closely attached to each other. Therefore, the attachment strength between the external terminal electrode and the element body can be improved. Hence, it is possible to suppress peeling of the external terminal electrode from the element body.

A coil component includes a blocking material that contains a resin and that blocks a route that leads to a gap between turns of a wire from an outside at portions of the wire that are in close contact with each other between adjoining turns.
