A common mode noise filter includes an insulating layer, a first coil conductor disposed on a first surface of the insulating layer and extending slenderly, and a second coil conductor disposed on a second surface of the insulating layer and extending slenderly. The second coil conductor faces the first coil conductor across the insulating layer. A portion of the second coil conductor has a cross section crossing a direction in which the portion of the second coil conductor extends slenderly. The cross section includes an apex portion facing the first coil conductor across the insulating layer and a base side portion opposite to the apex portion. A width of the apex portion is smaller than a width of the base-side portion. The common mode noise filter reduces attenuation of differential signals in high frequencies.

Common mode noise filter

An object of the present disclosure is to provide a common mode noise filter that can be used in a high-frequency band. The common mode noise filter of the present disclosure includes first to fifth insulator layers and stacked body in which first to fifth insulator layers are stacked along a vertical direction. The common mode noise filter further includes first spiral conductor and second spiral conductor that are formed inside stacked body and face each other across first insulator layer. The common mode noise filter further includes first pad connected to an inner end of first spiral conductor and second pad connected to an inner end of second spiral conductor. Neither first pad nor second pad overlaps each of first spiral conductor and second spiral conductor in top view.

A common mode noise filter includes a laminated body having insulator layers therein and first and second spiral conductors provided on layer planes different from each other. The first spiral conductor includes a first spiral conductor line, a first pad provided at an outer end of the first spiral conductor line, and a second pad provided at an inner end of the first spiral conductor line. The second spiral conductor includes a second spiral conductor line, a third pad provided at an outer end of the second spiral conductor line, and a fourth pad provided at an inner end of the second spiral conductor line. The first spiral conductor line faces the second spiral conductor line. Each of the second pad and the sixth pad overlaps none of the fourth pad and the eighth pad viewing from above.

A common mode noise filter includes first to fourth insulator layers stacked in a stacking direction and first to third coils provided on the first to fourth insulator layers independently of one another. The first coil includes a first coil conductor provided on the first insulator layer and a second coil conductor provided on the fourth insulator layer and connected to the first coil conductor. The second coil is provided on the second insulator layer. The third coil is provided on the third insulator layer. The first coil conductor overlaps the second coil viewing from above. At least a part of the second coil overlaps at least a part of the third coil viewing from above. The second coil conductor overlaps the third coil viewing from above.
