Abstract
An electronic component having a laminate having a plurality of insulator layers. A coil is provided consisting of a plurality of coil conductors that are connected by via-conductors piercing through the insulator layers, the coil winding helically about an axis along a direction of lamination. External electrodes are provided on surfaces of the laminate, in which at least some pairs of the coil conductors that neighbor each other with one of the insulator layers provided therebetween have parallel sections that overlap each other when viewed in the direction of lamination. The parallel sections are connected in parallel by the via-conductors or the external electrodes, and each pair of the coil conductors that neighbor each other with one of the insulator layers provided therebetween do not overlap each other when viewed in the direction of lamination, except for the parallel sections, and connections between the coil conductors and the via-conductors.
