An electronic component includes a projection electrode to be bonded to a circuit board. The projection electrode is prevented from being contaminated or oxidized during a period from manufacturing of the electronic component until mounting of the component to the circuit board. Methods of manufacturing the electronic component and an electronic circuit device are also provided. The electronic component includes the projection electrode formed on a connection terminal on a substrate having a circuit element and a protective film for covering the circuit element and the projection electrode. The projection electrode is prevented from being contaminated or oxidized since the manufacturing of the electronic component until mounting thereof to the circuit board, and reliable bonding of the projection electrode to a connection terminal of the circuit board can be realized.
