Abstract
An inductor element includes a wire-winding portion and a core portion. In the wire-winding portion, a conductor is wound in a coil shape. The core portion surrounds the wire-winding portion and contains a magnetic powder and a resin. The wire-winding portion includes an inner circumferential surface. A winding-wire inner circumferential neighboring region is a region of the core portion within a distance from the inner circumferential surface toward a winding axis of the wire-winding portion. An inner-core central region is a region of the core portion within a distance from the winding axis center toward an existing region of the wire-winding portion in an outward direction perpendicular to the winding axis center. Sα−Sβ1≥5.0% is satisfied, where Sα(%) and Sβ1(%) are respectively an area ratio of a magnetic powder in the inner-core central region and the winding-wire inner circumferential neighboring region.
