Abstract
A surface-mount inductor includes an element assembly having a core, a coil, and a magnetic material; and a pair of external terminals disposed on a mounting surface of the element assembly. The core has a base portion and a columnar portion on an upper surface of the base portion. The coil is disposed on the base portion, and has a wound portion on the columnar portion, and a pair of extended portions extended from the wound portion toward a side surface of the base portion. The magnetic material includes the coil and covers at least a part of the core. The external terminals are disposed on the mounting surface of the element assembly and connected to the extended portions. The surface-mount inductor has, on a surface at a mounting surface side of the wound portion, a curved portion that is curved toward a side opposite to the mounting surface.
