Abstract
Disclosed is a planar inductor which has spiral conductor coil means sandwiched between ferromagnetic layers with insulating layers interposed therebetween. The spiral conductor coil means is formed of two spiral conductor coils of the same shape arranged flush with and close to each other. Moreover, the two spiral conductor coils are connected electrically to each other so that currents of different directions flow individually through the conductor coils. Furthermore, the spiral conductor coil means is sandwiched between the two ferromagnetic layers with the insulating layers therebetween, each of the ferromagnetic layers having an area greater than the combined area of the two conductor coils. In the planar inductor according to the present invention, inductance is prevented from lowering while its components are being bonded together, so that the inductance value per unit volume is increased.
