An inductor component includes an element body, a coil provided in the element body, and an outer electrode provided to the element body and electrically connected to the coil. The outer electrode includes an underlying layer embedded in the element body in which part of the underlying layer protrudes from a surface of the element body, and a coating film that covers a portion of the underlying layer exposed at the element body.

Inductor component

An inductor component includes an element assembly having a first surface and a second surface located opposite to the first surface, a first direction-distinguishing layer disposed on the first surface, and a second direction-distinguishing layer disposed on the second surface. The first direction-distinguishing layer has a first cavity passing through in the thickness direction. The second direction-distinguishing layer has a second cavity passing through in the thickness direction. The element assembly has a first exposed portion that is part of the element assembly and that is exposed in the first cavity and has a second exposed portion that is part of the element assembly and that is exposed in the second cavity. The first amount of protrusion of the first exposed portion protruding in the thickness direction is less than the second amount of protrusion of the second exposed portion protruding in the thickness direction.

An inductor component includes an element body, a coil provided in the element body, and an outer electrode provided at the element body and electrically connected to the coil. The element body includes a bottom surface that faces the mounting substrate when the element body is mounted, the outer electrode includes an underlying layer and a coating film that covers the underlying layer. At the bottom surface of the element body, the underlying layer is embedded in the element body and does not protrude from the element body, and at least part of the coating film is embedded in the element body.
