Inductor

Abstract

An inductor comprising a body including a resin that includes first magnetic metal particles having a first diameter, a first coil and a second coil inside the body, and a first portion in the body between the first coil and the second coil in a stacking direction of the first coil and the second coil. The first portion extends between the first coil and the second coil along a first direction which is transverse to the stacking direction. The first portion includes second magnetic metal particles having a second diameter that is smaller than the first diameter. A border area where the first portion and a second portion of the body meet includes extending areas where the first portion extends further into the second portion of the body along the first direction than other areas of the first portion in the border area such that the first portion and the second portion mesh with each other.
