The drum core and the plate core are made of a magnetic material. An average distance between the plate core and the pair of flange portions is no less than about 20 μm and no more than about 50 μm. The wire includes aligned banked winding portions arranged along the longitudinal direction and more than half of a total number of turns of the wire belong to the aligned banked winding portions.
