Abstract
Advantage is taken of the fact that tin has a higher efficiency of absorption of a laser beam than, for example, copper. A method of manufacturing a coil component includes preparing a wire that includes a linear, central conductor and an insulating coating that covers a circumferential surface of the central conductor, preparing a metal terminal that is to be electrically connected to the central conductor at an end portion of the wire and that has a surface on which a tin-containing film that contains tin is disposed and above which at least the end portion of the wire is to be disposed, and welding the central conductor of the wire to the metal terminal by irradiating at least the tin-containing film with a laser beam with the end portion of the wire disposed along the tin-containing film.
