Abstract
A coil is provided at a multilayer body including insulating layers stacked on one another. The coil includes linear conductors connected by via conductors to make a looped track when viewed from a layer stacking direction. The linear conductors include a first linear conductor contacting with an external electrode provided on the surface of the multilayer body, and a second linear conductor forming a half of the looped track. The first linear conductor includes a coil portion forming a part of the looped track. The second linear conductor is adjacent to the first linear conductor with one of the insulating layers in-between, and a first end of the second linear conductor is connected to a first end of the first linear conductor by a first via conductor. A second end of the second linear conductor does not overlap the first linear conductor when viewed from the layer stacking direction.
