Abstract
A manufacturing method of electronic components includes forming a first insulation layer on a substrate, forming a plurality of passive elements on the first insulation layer, forming a second insulation layer on the passive elements, forming a plurality of conductor layers electrically connected to the respective passive elements, on the outer side of the second insulation layer to be exposed to an upper surface of each electronic component, and forming grooves between the electronic components including the respective passive elements to expose side surfaces of each electronic component and parts of the conductor layers from the side surfaces of each electronic component. The manufacturing method further including plating a plurality of external electrodes on the respective conductor layers exposed to the upper surface and the side surfaces of each electronic component, and cutting the substrate to completely separate into individual electronic components.
