Abstract
A coil device includes terminal electrodes each including a bottom-surface electrode provided on a bottom surface of a flange, side-surface electrodes provided on side surfaces of the flange, and an end-surface electrode provided on an end surface of the flange at the lower part of the end surface. The end-surface electrode is arranged on the end surface of the flange so that the upper edge of the end-surface electrode is disposed at a first level that is substantially the same as that of the upper edges of the side-surface electrodes in the vicinity of boundaries between the end surface and each side surface of the flange and is disposed at a second level lower than the first level at an approximate central portion of the end surface of the flange.
