The first core includes a main body part extending in a first direction along a main surface of the substrate, a first foot part extending from the main body part to the second core through the substrate, and a second foot part extending from the main body part to the second core through the substrate at a position at which the coil conductor is sandwiched between itself and the first foot part in the first direction, and the insulating member includes a bottom wall part interposed between at least the first foot part and the second core, and a side wall part extending along at least either of the first foot part and the second foot part and interposed between either of the foot parts and the coil conductor.

Coil structure

A coil component includes a first core having a leg portion, a second core joined to the first core with the leg portion therebetween, and a magnet disposed between the leg portion and the second core. Movement of the magnet in a first direction intersecting a direction in which the first core and the second core face each other is at least restricted by an uneven structure provided on a junction surface between the magnet and at least one of the first core and the second core.

Coil component

A discharge-lamp control device for lighting a discharge-lamp includes two electrodes, first and second driving units to supply power to the discharge-lamp through the electrodes, respectively. Each driving unit includes a transformer having primary and secondary coils and a capacitor connected in parallel to the secondary coil. The first driving unit has impedance characteristics with a minimum impedance at a first frequency and a maximum impedance at a second frequency lower than the first frequency. The second driving unit has impedance characteristics having a minimum impedance at a third frequency and a maximum impedance at a fourth frequency lower than the third frequency. The first frequency is set to be higher than the third frequency. The second frequency is set to be lower than the fourth frequency. An operating frequency of the driving circuit is selected within a frequency bandwidth from the fourth frequency to the third frequency.
