Abstract
Provided is a laminated inductor having a magnetic body, a conductor part covered in a manner directly contacting the magnetic body, and external terminals provided on the outside of the magnetic body and conducting to the conductor part; wherein the magnetic body is a laminate constituted by layers containing soft magnetic alloy grains, and the soft magnetic alloy grain contacting the conductor part is flattened on the conductor part side.
Claims11
A laminated inductor comprising a magnetic body, a conductor part in contact with and enclosed by the magnetic body, and external terminals provided on the outside of the magnetic body and conducting to the conductor part;
- wherein the magnetic body is a laminate constituted by layers containing soft magnetic alloy grains, and
- in the magnetic body, more than half of the soft magnetic alloy grains contacting the conductor part are non-randomly deformed and flattened so that the flattened surfaces of the soft magnetic alloy grains define substantially a common plane to contact the conductor part as compared with the shapes of soft magnetic alloy grains located away from the conductor part.
A laminated inductor comprising a magnetic body, a conductor part in contact with and enclosed by the magnetic body, and external terminals provided on the outside of the magnetic body and conducting to the conductor part;
- wherein the magnetic body is a laminate constituted by layers containing soft magnetic alloy grains, and
- in the magnetic body, at least some soft magnetic alloy grains contacting the conductor part undergo methodical or systematic deformation to be flattened to contact the conductor part as compared with the shapes of soft magnetic alloy grains located away from the conductor part,
- wherein the soft magnetic alloy grains have an oxide film on their surface bonding the soft magnetic alloy grains.
