Abstract
In an electronic component having a built-in coil composed of coil conductors with a length of one turn, the inductance value can be increased while suppressing generation of short circuits inside the coil conductors. The electronic component includes a multilayer body formed by stacking a plurality of magnetic layers on top of one another. The built-in coil includes coil conductors and via hole conductors. The coil conductors each have a ring-shaped coil portion having a cut out portion in one side of one corner thereof, and a connecting portion that form an obtuse angle with a side extending from one end portion of the coil portion and is positioned in a region enclosed or surrounded by the coil portion. Via hole conductors connect the plurality of coil conductors to one another.

An electronic component comprising:
- a multilayer body including a plurality of insulating layers stacked on top of one another;
- and
- a coil built into the multilayer body, said coil including:
- a plurality of coil conductors each having a ring-shaped coil portion having a cut out portion in one side of one corner thereof, and
- a connecting portion that connects a first point located in one end portion of the coil portion and a second point located in a direction that forms an obtuse angle with a side of the coil portion extending from the first point and in a region enclosed by the coil portion when seen from the first point, the coil conductors each having a length of one turn;
- and
- a plurality of via hole conductors connecting the plurality of coil conductors to one another.
