Abstract
A ceramic inductor component and a composite component are provided having desired properties, superior stability of properties and superior durability. When Ni—Cu—Zn ferrite or Ni—Cu ferrite is used for a magnetic ceramic body constituting an inductor portion, and when the contents of S, Cl and Na contained in the ferrite are set to be in the ranges of about 5 to 150 ppm, about 5 to 150 ppm and about 5 to 100 ppm, respectively, diffusion of an internal conductive metal primarily composed of Ag into the magnetic ceramic body is suppressed, and hence, the degradation of electric properties can be avoided. Accordingly, by facilitating sintering, the insulating resistance of the ceramic is improved, and the durability and reliability of the ceramic inductor component can be improved.
