Abstract
A winding core is formed by extruding a kneaded material which is obtained by kneading a powdered magnetic material and a binder. A conducting wire is wound around the winding core in a coiled manner. An external cover element is formed by extruding the kneaded material to enclose the winding core, and the winding core and the external cover element are sintered. The semimanufactured product obtained by the above steps is cut into a predetermined length to thereby obtain a plurality of chip inductor main bodies. An external electrode is formed on each of end surfaces of the respective chip inductor main bodies such that the external electrode is connected to each of end portions of the conducting wire, the end portions being exposed to both end surfaces of the respective chip inductor main bodies.
