Electronic components

An electronic component comprising a coil buried on faces of laminations in a parallelepiped-rectangular laminated chip, first and second terminal electrodes located at respective first and second opposite ends of the chip and connected to respective first and second opposite ends of the coil,

• leadout conductors connected between the first coil end and the first terminal electrode,
• a second leadout conductor connected between the second coil end and the second terminal electrode,
• the coil having a longitudinal axis extending at right angles to the faces of the laminations and on a straight line joining central points of the opposed end surfaces of the chip where said terminal electrodes are located,
• the chip having a size and shape enabling mounting thereof on a circuit board surface in a position such that the coil axis extends parallel to the circuit board surface,
• the first and second opposite ends of said coil being located symmetrically with respect to the coil axis,
• at least a portion of the leadout conductors connected between the first coil end and the first terminal electrode being located symmetrically with respect to the coil axis.

An electronic part comprising a coil having interconnected segments buried on faces of laminations in a cylindrical laminated chip and first and second terminal electrodes respectively located at opposite first and second ends of the chip and connected to the respective ends of the coil,

• the coil having a longitudinal axis extending at right angles to the faces of the laminations and on a straight line joining central points of the opposed end surfaces of the chip where said terminal electrodes are located,
• the chip having a size and shape enabling mounting thereof on a circuit board surface in a position such that the coil axis extends parallel to the circuit board surface,
• the coil having a winding locus as seen in the direction of said coil axis and projected on an end face of the chip perpendicular to the coil axis, and
• the winding locus and leadout conductors being positioned such that when the electronic part is mounted on a circuit board with the coil axis parallel to the circuit board surface, the winding locus and the distance between the leadout conductors and the circuit board remain unchanged despite a reversal in the position of the electronic part on the circuit board.
