Abstract
Disclosed is a chip component including a substrate having a first surface and a second surface on an opposite side from the first surface, and a third surface connecting the first surface and the second surface to each other, an external surface resin configured to cover at least the third surface of the substrate, and a terminal electrode formed on the first surface of the substrate and exposed from the external surface resin. A recessed portion is formed in an end portion of the third surface of the substrate, the end portion being on the first surface side. The external surface resin is embedded in the recessed portion.
Claims16
A chip component, comprising:
- a substrate having
- a first surface,
- a second surface on an opposite side from the first surface, and
- a third surface that connects the first surface to the second surface;
- an external surface resin that covers at least the third surface of the substrate, wherein
- the external surface resin includes an end portion on a first surface side of the substrate, and
- the end portion of the external surface resin has an inclined surface inclined with respect to the first surface;
- a terminal electrode disposed in the first surface of the substrate and exposed from the external surface resin;
- and
- a recessed portion formed in an end portion of the third surface of the substrate, wherein
- the end portion of the third surface is on the first surface side,
- the external surface resin is embedded in the recessed portion, and
- the recessed portion has an annular shape enclosing the first surface of the substrate as viewed in plan.
A method of manufacturing a chip component, comprising:
- in a chip forming region of a base substrate having a first surface in which the chip forming region is set and a second surface on an opposite side from the first surface, forming a terminal electrode on the first surface;
- forming, in the first surface of the base substrate, a recessed portion bulging outward beyond a border demarcating the chip forming region by selectively etching the base substrate from the first surface along the border;
- forming a groove integrated with the recessed portion by digging down a bottom portion of the recessed portion with a width smaller than the recessed portion in a thickness direction of the base substrate;
- forming a base resin layer that fills the groove and the recessed portion and covers the chip forming region;
- removing an unnecessary part of the base resin layer, the unnecessary part covering the chip forming region, such that a part embedded in the groove and the recessed portion remains;
- grinding the second surface of the base substrate until the base resin layer is exposed;
- and
- cutting out the chip component from the base substrate by cutting the base resin layer such that a part of the base resin layer, the part covering an inner surface of the groove, remains, wherein the chip component comprises:
- a substrate having
- a first surface,
- a second surface on an opposite side from the first surface of the substrate, and
- a third surface that connects the first surface of the substrate to the second surface of the substrate;
- an external surface resin that covers at least the third surface of the substrate, wherein
- the external surface resin includes an end portion on a first surface side of the substrate, and
- the end portion of the external surface resin has an inclined surface inclined with respect to the first surface of the substrate;
- the terminal electrode disposed in the first surface of the substrate and exposed from the external surface resin;
- and
- the recessed portion formed in an end portion of the third surface of the substrate, wherein
- the end portion of the third surface is on the first surface side,
- the external surface resin is embedded in the recessed portion, and
- the recessed portion has an annular shape enclosing the first surface of the substrate as viewed in plan.
