Abstract
A laminated inductor includes a laminate having a plurality of insulating layers, a helical coil and first and second external electrodes on an underside of the laminate. The helical coil has coiled electrodes, each coiled up in one turn, and the first and second external electrodes are connected to respective, or corresponding, ends of the helical coil. Each of the coiled electrodes of the helical coil follow a path along the periphery of one of the insulating layers and include first end located in the path and second end located outside the path. The helical coil and the first external electrode are connected to each other by a lead via conductor formed in a space that is enclosed by parts of the coiled electrodes including the first and second ends.
