Title: Coil component

Description:
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION(S) 
     This application claims benefit under 35 USC 119(a) of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2019-0173853 filed on Dec. 24, 2019 in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference for all purposes. 
     TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present disclosure relates to a coil component. 
     BACKGROUND 
     Inductors, as coil components, are typical passive elements constituting electronic circuits together with resistors and capacitors to remove noise. 
     A thin-film coil component is manufactured by forming a coil portion by plating, and then curing a magnetic powder-resin composite in which the magnetic powder and resin are mixed to produce a body, and forming an external electrode on the outside of the body. 
     However, when the body is manufactured using the magnetic metal powder and the external electrode is formed by plating on the outside of the body, parasitic capacitance may occur between the coil portion and the external electrode. 
     Therefore, it is necessary to improve the characteristics of the component by disposing an insulating layer on the surface of the body and adjusting the distance between the coil portion and the external electrode or the contact area between the body and the external electrode. 
     SUMMARY 
     This Summary is provided to introduce a selection of concepts in simplified form that are further described below in the Detailed Description. This Summary is not intended to identify key features or essential features of the claimed subject matter, nor is it intended to be used as an aid in determining the scope of the claimed subject matter. 
     An aspect of the present disclosure is to provide a coil component in which parasitic capacitance may be reduced by adjusting a distance between a coil portion and an external electrode or an area of contact between a body and an external electrode. 
     An aspect of the present disclosure is to provide a coil component in which the reduction in a magnetic substance volume of a body may be effectively prevented. 
     According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a coil component includes a support substrate and a coil portion disposed on the support substrate, a body in which the support substrate and the coil portion are embedded, first and second lead portions extending from the coil portion and respectively exposed to a surface of the body, a surface insulating layer disposed on the surface of the body and having openings respectively exposing the first and second lead portions, and first and second external electrodes disposed on the surface insulating layer and connected to the first and second lead portions exposed through the opening. Each of the first and second external electrodes includes a first metal layer formed of a metal and in direct contact with the first and second lead portions.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     The following detailed description is provided to assist the reader in gaining a comprehensive understanding of the methods, apparatuses, and/or systems described herein. However, various changes, modifications, and equivalents of the methods, apparatuses, and/or systems described herein will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art. The sequences of operations described herein are merely examples, and are not limited to those set forth herein, but may be changed as will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art, with the exception of operations necessarily occurring in a certain order. Also, descriptions of functions and constructions that would be well known to one of ordinary skill in the art may be omitted for increased clarity and conciseness. 
     The features described herein may be embodied in different forms, and are not to be construed as being limited to the examples described herein. Rather, the examples described herein have been provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to one of ordinary skill in the art. 
     Herein, it is noted that use of the term “may” with respect to an example or embodiment, e.g., as to what an example or embodiment may include or implement, means that at least one example or embodiment exists in which such a feature is included or implemented while all examples and embodiments are not limited thereto. 
     Throughout the specification, when an element, such as a layer, region, or substrate, is described as being “on,” “connected to,” or “coupled to” another element, it may be directly “on,” “connected to,” or “coupled to” the other element, or there may be one or more other elements intervening therebetween. In contrast, when an element is described as being “directly on,” “directly connected to,” or “directly coupled to” another element, there may be no other elements intervening therebetween. 
     As used herein, the term “and/or” includes any one and any combination of any two or more of the associated listed items. 
     Although terms such as “first,” “second,” and “third” may be used herein to describe various members, components, regions, layers, or sections, these members, components, regions, layers, or sections are not to be limited by these terms. Rather, these terms are only used to distinguish one member, component, region, layer, or section from another member, component, region, layer, or section. Thus, a first member, component, region, layer, or section referred to in examples described herein may also be referred to as a second member, component, region, layer, or section without departing from the teachings of the examples. 
     Spatially relative terms such as “above,” “upper,” “below,” and “lower” may be used herein for ease of description to describe one element&#39;s relationship to another element as illustrated in the figures. Such spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures is turned over, an element described as being “above” or “upper” relative to another element will then be “below” or “lower” relative to the other element. Thus, the term “above” encompasses both the above and below orientations depending on the spatial orientation of the device. The device may also be oriented in other ways (for example, rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations), and the spatially relative terms used herein are to be interpreted accordingly. 
     The terminology used herein is for describing various examples only, and is not to be used to limit the disclosure. The articles “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. The terms “comprises,” “includes,” and “has” specify the presence of stated features, numbers, operations, members, elements, and/or combinations thereof, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, numbers, operations, members, elements, and/or combinations thereof. 
     Due to manufacturing techniques and/or tolerances, variations of the shapes illustrated in the drawings may occur. Thus, the examples described herein are not limited to the specific shapes illustrated in the drawings, but include changes in shape that occur during manufacturing. 
     The features of the examples described herein may be combined in various ways as will be apparent after gaining an understanding of the disclosure of this application. Further, although the examples described herein have a variety of configurations, other configurations are possible as will be apparent after gaining an understanding of the disclosure of this application. 
     The drawings may not be to scale, and the relative size, proportions, and depiction of elements in the drawings may be exaggerated for clarity, illustration, and convenience. 
     A value used to describe a parameter such as a 1-D dimension of an element including, but not limited to, “length,” “width,” “thickness,” diameter,” “distance,” “gap,” and/or “size,” a 2-D dimension of an element including, but not limited to, “area” and/or “size,” a 3-D dimension of an element including, but not limited to, “volume” and/or “size”, and a property of an element including, not limited to, “roughness,” “density,” “weight,” “weight ratio,” and/or “molar ratio” may be obtained by the method(s) and/or the tool(s) described in the present disclosure. The present disclosure, however, is not limited thereto. Other methods and/or tools appreciated by one of ordinary skill in the art, even if not described in the present disclosure, may also be used. 
     In the drawings, the X direction may be defined as a first direction or a longitudinal direction, a Y direction as a second direction or a width direction, and a Z direction as a third direction or a thickness direction. 
     Hereinafter, a coil component according to an exemplary embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, and in describing with reference to the accompanying drawings, the same or corresponding components are assigned the same reference numbers, and overlapped descriptions thereof will be omitted. 
     Various types of electronic components are used in electronic devices, and various types of coil components may be appropriately used to remove noise between the electronic components. 
     For example, in electronic devices, coil components may be used as power inductors, high-frequency (HF) inductors, general beads, high-frequency beads (GHz Beads), and common mode filters. 
     Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments will be described on the premise that a coil component according to an exemplary embodiment is a power inductor used in a power line of a power supply circuit. However, the coil component according to an exemplary embodiment may be suitably applied as a chip bead, a chip filter, or the like as well as a power inductor. 
     First Embodiment 
       FIG. 1  is a view schematically illustrating a coil component according to a first embodiment.  FIG. 2  is a view schematically illustrating the arrangement structure of a surface insulating layer and an external electrode formed in the coil component of  FIG. 1 .  FIG. 3  is a view illustrating a cross section taken along line I-I′ of  FIG. 1 .  FIG. 4  is a view illustrating a cross section taken along line II-II′ of  FIG. 1 . 
       FIG. 1  mainly illustrates a body applied to a coil component according to the first embodiment, and  FIG. 2  mainly illustrates a surface insulating layer and an external electrode applied to the coil component according to the first embodiment. 
     Referring to  FIGS. 1 to 4 , a coil component  1000  according to the first embodiment includes a body  100 , a support substrate  200 , first and second coil portions  310  and  320 , and first and second lead portions  410  and  420 , a surface insulating layer  500 , first and second external electrodes  610  and  620 , and first and second auxiliary lead portions  810  and  820 . 
     The body  100  forms the exterior of the coil component  1000  according to the embodiment, and includes the support substrate  200  and the coil portions  310  and  320  embedded therein to be described later. 
     The body  100  may be formed to have a hexahedral shape as a whole. 
     Based on  FIG. 1 , the body  100  includes a first surface  101  and a second surface  102  opposing each other in the X direction, a third surface  103  and a fourth surface  104  opposing each other in the Z direction, and a fifth surface  105  and a sixth surface  106  opposing each other in the Y direction. The first surface  101  and the second surface  102  of the body  100  opposing each other respectively connect the third surface  103  and the fourth surface  104  of the body  100  opposing each other. The fifth surface  105  and the sixth surface  106  of the body  100  opposing each other respectively connect the first surface  101  and the second surface  102  of the body  100  opposing each other. In this embodiment, one surface and the other surface of the body  100  refer to the third surface  103  and the fourth surface  104 , respectively, one side and the other side refer to the first surface  101  and the second surface  102 , respectively, and one end and the other end refers to the fifth surface  105  and the sixth surface  106 , respectively. 
     The body  100  may be configured, for example, in such a manner that the coil component  1000  according to this embodiment, in which the external electrodes  610  and  620  to be described later are formed, has a length of 2.0 mm, a width of 1.2 mm and a thickness of 0.8 mm or less, or a length of 1.6 mm, a width of 0.8 mm and a thickness of 0.8 mm or less, or a length of 0.2 mm, a width of 0.25 mm and a thickness of 0.4 mm, but the configuration is not limited thereto. On the other hand, since the above-described numerical values do not take into account the error in the process, it is also within the scope of the present invention to have a numerical value different from the above-mentioned value due to the process error. 
     The length, width, and thickness of the coil component  1000  described above may be measured by micrometer measurement, respectively. The micrometer measurement method is measured by setting the zero point with a micrometer (apparatus) which is gage R&amp;R (Repeatability and Reproducibility), inserting the coil part  1000  between the tips of the micrometer, and turning the micrometer&#39;s measuring lever. On the other hand, in measuring the length of the coil component  1000  by using a micrometer measurement method, the length of the coil component  1000  may mean a value measured once, or may mean an arithmetic average of values measured multiple times. This may also be applied to the case of measuring the width and thickness of the coil component  1000 . 
     Alternatively, the length, width, and thickness of the coil component  1000  described above may be measured by a cross-section analysis method, respectively. As an example, the length of the coil part  1000  by the cross-section analysis method is an optical microscope for the cross-section in the longitudinal direction (X)-thickness direction (Z) in the center of the width direction (Y) of the body  100 . Or based on a picture of a scanning electron microscope (SEM, Scanning Electron Microscope), the length of the coil component  1000  may mean the maximum value of the length of a plurality of line segments parallel to the longitudinal direction (X) of the body  100  connecting the outermost boundary line of the coil part  1000  shown in the cross-sectional view. Alternatively, the length of the coil component  1000  may mean the minimum value of the length of a plurality of line segments parallel to the longitudinal direction (X) of the body  100  connecting the outermost boundary line of the coil part  1000  shown in the cross-sectional view. Alternatively, the length of the coil component  1000  may mean an arithmetic mean value of the length of a plurality of line segments parallel to the longitudinal direction (X) of the body  100  connecting the outermost boundary line of the coil part  1000  shown in the cross-sectional view. The above description can be applied to the width and thickness of the coil component  1000  in the same way. 
     The body  100  may include a magnetic material and a resin. In detail, the body  100  may be formed by laminating one or more magnetic sheets including a resin and a magnetic material dispersed in the resin. The body  100  may also have a structure other than the structure in which the magnetic material is dispersed in the resin. For example, the body  100  may be formed of a magnetic material such as ferrite. 
     The magnetic material may be ferrite or magnetic metal powder. 
     Ferrite powder particles may be at least one of, for example, spinel ferrites such as Mg—Zn, Mn—Zn, Mn—Mg, Cu—Zn, Mg—Mn—Sr, Ni—Zn and the like, hexagonal ferrites such as Ba—Zn, Ba—Mg, Ba—Ni, Ba—Co, Ba—Ni—Co and the like, garnet ferrites such as Y, and Li ferrites. 
     The magnetic metal powder particles may include at least one of iron (Fe), silicon (Si), chromium (Cr), cobalt (Co), molybdenum (Mo), aluminum (Al), niobium (Nb), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni) and alloys thereof. For example, the magnetic metal powder may be at least one or more of pure iron powder, Fe—Si alloy powder, Fe—Si—Al alloy powder, Fe—Ni alloy powder, Fe—Ni—Mo alloy powder, Fe—Ni—Mo—Cu alloy powder, Fe—Co alloy powder, Fe—Ni—Co alloy powder, Fe—Cr alloy powder, Fe—Cr—Si alloy powder, Fe—Si—Cu—Nb alloy powder, Fe—Ni—Cr alloy powder and Fe—Cr—Al alloy powder. 
     The magnetic metal powder may be amorphous or crystalline. For example, the magnetic metal powder may be Fe—Si—B—Cr-based amorphous alloy powder, but is not limited thereto. 
     The ferrite power and the magnetic metal powder may have an average diameter of about 0.1 μm to 30 μm, respectively, but the diameters thereof are not limited thereto. 
     The body  100  may include two or more types of magnetic materials dispersed in a resin. In this case, the fact that the magnetic materials are different types means that the magnetic materials dispersed in the resin are distinguished from each other by any one of an average diameter, a composition, crystallinity, and a shape. 
     The resin may include an epoxy, polyimide, a liquid crystal polymer, or the like, alone or in combination, but the embodiment is not limited thereto. 
     The body  100  includes a core  110  penetrating through the first and second coil portions  310  and  320  and the support substrate  200  to be described later. The core  110  may be formed by filling through-holes of the first and second coil portions  310  and  320  with the magnetic composite sheet, but the embodiment is not limited thereto. 
     The support substrate  200  is embedded inside the body  100 , and includes one surface and the other surface opposing each other. In this embodiment, one surface of the support substrate  200  refers to a lower surface of the support substrate  200 , and the other surface of the support substrate  200  refers to an upper surface of the support substrate  200 . 
     The thickness of the support substrate  200  may be 10 μm or more and 60 μm or less. 
     The support substrate  200  is formed of an insulating material including a thermosetting insulating resin such as an epoxy resin, a thermoplastic insulating resin such as polyimide, or a photoimageable dielectric resin, or may be formed of an insulating material in which a reinforcing material such as glass fiber or filler is impregnated in such an insulating resin. As an example, the support substrate  200  may be formed of an insulating material such as prepreg, Ajinomoto Build-up Film (ABF), FR-4, bismaleimide triazine (BT) film, or Photoimageable Dielectric (PID) film, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. 
     As the filler, at least one or more selected from the group consisting of silica (SiO 2 ), alumina (Al 2 O 3 ), silicon carbide (SiC), barium sulfate (BaSO 4 ), talc, mud, mica powder, aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH) 3 ), magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH) 2 ), calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ), magnesium carbonate (MgCO 3 ), magnesium oxide (MgO), boron nitride (BN), aluminum borate (AlBO 3 ), barium titanate (BaTiO 3 ) and calcium zirconate (CaZrO 3 ). 
     When the support substrate  200  is formed of an insulating material including a reinforcing material, the support substrate  200  may provide relatively superior rigidity. When the support substrate  200  is formed of an insulating material that does not contain glass fiber, the support substrate  200  is advantageous in terms of reducing the overall thickness of the coil portions  310  and  320 . When the support substrate  200  is formed of an insulating material including a photoimageable dielectric resin, the number of processes of forming the coil portions  310  and  320  may be reduced, which is advantageous in reducing production costs and in forming a fine via. 
     The first and second coil portions  310  and  320  are disposed on one surface and the other surface opposing each other, respectively, on the support substrate  200  and exhibit characteristics of the coil component. For example, when the coil component  1000  of this embodiment is used as a power inductor, the electric field of the coil portions  310  and  320  may be stored as a magnetic field to maintain an output voltage, thereby stabilizing power of electronic devices. 
     Referring to  FIGS. 1 to 4 , each of the first coil portion  310  and the second coil portion  320  may be in the form of a flat spiral formed with at least one turn with respect to the core  110  as an axis. For example, the first coil portion  310  may form at least one turn about the core  110  as an axis, on one surface of the support substrate  200 . 
     The first and second coil portions  310  and  320  may include a coil pattern of a flat spiral shape, and the first and second coil portions  310  and  320  disposed on both surfaces of the support substrate  200  opposing each other may be electrically connected through a via electrode  900  formed in the support substrate  200 . 
     The first and second coil portions  310  and  320  and the via electrode  900  may be formed to include a metal having excellent electrical conductivity, and for example, may be formed of silver (Ag), palladium (Pd), aluminum (Al), nickel (Ni), titanium (Ti), gold (Au), copper (Cu), platinum (Pt), or alloys thereof. 
     The first and second lead portions  410  and  420  extend from the first and second coil portions  310  and  320  and are exposed to the first surface  101  and the second surface  102  of the body  100 , respectively. Referring to  FIGS. 1 to 3 , one end of the first coil portion  310  is extended on one surface of the support substrate  200  to form the first lead portion  410 , and the first lead portion  410  is exposed to the first surface  101  of the body  100 . In addition, one end of the second coil portion  320  is extended on the other surface of the support substrate  200  to form the second lead portion  420 , and the second lead portion  420  is exposed to the second surface  102  of the body  100 . 
     The first and second auxiliary lead portions  810  and  820  may be disposed to correspond to the first and second lead portions  410  and  420 , on the other surface and one surface of the support substrate  200 , respectively. The first lead portion  410  is disposed on one surface of the support substrate  200 , and the first auxiliary lead portion  810  is disposed on the other surface of the support substrate  200 . The second lead portion  420  is disposed on the other surface of the support substrate  200 , and the second auxiliary lead portion  820  is disposed on one surface of the support substrate  200 . Although not illustrated in detail, a connection via (not illustrated) connecting the first lead portion  410  and the first auxiliary lead portion  810 , and a connecting via (not illustrated) connecting the second lead portion  420  and the second auxiliary lead portion  820  may be formed respectively. As a result, the first lead portion  410  and the first auxiliary lead portion  810  may be electrically connected to each other, and the second lead portion  420  and the second auxiliary lead portion  820  may be electrically connected to each other. 
     The first auxiliary lead portion  810  is disposed to correspond to the first lead portion  410  based on the support substrate  200 , and the second auxiliary lead portion  820  is disposed to correspond to the second lead portion  420 , based on the support substrate  200 . On the other hand, the first and second auxiliary lead portions  810  and  820  may be exposed to the surface of the body  100  together with the first and second lead portions  410  and  420 . Accordingly, the first and second external electrodes  610  and  620  are formed not only on the exposed surfaces of the first and second lead portions  410  and  420 , but also on the exposed surfaces of the first and second auxiliary lead portions  810  and  820 . Although not illustrated in detail, since the bonding force between the surface insulating layer  500  and the metal is weaker than the bonding force between the surface insulating layer  500  and the body  100 , the opening P, which will be described later, may also be formed on the exposed surfaces of the first and second auxiliary lead portions  810  and  820 . Therefore, of the surface of the body  100 , the area of a region thereof in which the first and second external electrodes  610  and  620  may be metal-bonded increases, thereby increasing the bonding force between the body  100  and the first and second external electrodes  610  and  620 . 
     At least one of the coil portions  310  and  320 , the via electrode  900 , the lead portions  410  and  420 , and the auxiliary lead portions  810  and  820  may include at least one or more conductive layers. 
     For example, when the first coil portion  310 , the first lead portion  410 , the first auxiliary lead portion  810  and the via electrode  900  are formed by plating on one surface side of the support substrate  200 , the first coil portion  310 , the first lead portion  410 , the first auxiliary lead portion  810 , and the via electrode  900  may each include a seed layer such as an electroless plating layer or the like, and an electroplating layer. In this case, the electroplating layer may have a single layer structure or a multilayer structure. The multilayer electroplating layer may be formed of a conformal film structure in which one electroplating layer is covered by the other electroplating layer, or may be formed to have a shape in which the other electroplating layer is laminated only on one surface of one electroplating layer. In the above-described example, the seed layer of the first coil portion  310 , the seed layer of the first lead portion  410 , the seed layer of the first auxiliary lead portion  810  and the seed layer of the via electrode  900  may be integrally formed, so that a boundary therebetween is not formed, but the embodiment is not limited thereto. In addition, in the above-described example, the electroplating layer of the first coil portion  310 , the electroplating layer of the first lead portion  410 , the electroplating layer of the first auxiliary lead portion  810  and the electroplating layer of the via electrode  900  may be integrally formed, so that a boundary therebetween is not formed, but the embodiment is not limited thereto. 
     The coil portions  310  and  320 , the lead portions  410  and  420 , the auxiliary lead portions  810  and  820 , and the via electrode  900 , respectively, may be formed of a conductive material such as copper (Cu), aluminum (Al), silver (Ag), tin (Sn), gold (Au), nickel (Ni), lead (Pb), titanium (Ti), or alloys thereof, but the embodiment is not limited thereto. 
     The surface insulating layer  500  is disposed on the surface of the body  100  and has an opening P exposing the first and second lead portions  410  and  420 . The opening P refers to a region in the first and second surfaces  101  and  102  of the body  100 , in which the first and second lead portions  410  and  420  are exposed. 
     Referring to  FIGS. 1 to 3 , the surface insulating layer  500  includes a first surface insulating layer  510  formed on a region of the body  100  except for regions in which the first and second lead portions  410  and  420  are exposed among the first and second surfaces  101  and  102  of the body  100 , and a second surface insulating layer  520  disposed on the third surface  103  and the fourth surface  104 , and the fifth surface  105  and the sixth surface  106 , of the body  100 . 
     Referring to  FIG. 3 , the second surface insulating layer  520  is formed to reach both ends of the body  100 , opposing each other in the longitudinal direction X, respectively from the third surface  103 , the fourth surface  104 , the fifth surface  105 , and the sixth surface  106  of the body  100 . 
     The surface insulating layer  500  may be formed of an insulating material. As an example, the insulating material may be a thermosetting resin such as an epoxy resin, a thermoplastic resin such as polyimide, a photoimageable resin, or a liquid crystal crystalline polymer (LCP), but the material is not limited thereto. For example, the surface insulating layer  500  may be formed as a plating resist for the plating of the first and second external electrodes  610  and  620  to be described later. In addition, the surface insulating layer  500  may be formed by applying or printing such an insulating material on the surface of the body  100 . Therefore, the surface insulating layer  500  may be formed in a region of the surface of the body  100  except for regions in which the first and second lead portions  410  and  420  are exposed. On the other hand, the surface insulating layer  500  may be formed of a thin parylene film, or may be formed using various insulating materials such as a silicon oxide film (SiO 2 ), a silicon nitride film (Si 3 N 4 ), and a silicon oxynitride film (SiON). When the insulating layer  500  is formed using these materials, various methods such as vapor deposition or the like may be used. Thus, the surface insulating layer  500  may be disposed to continuously cover the magnetic metal powder particles and the resin of the body  100 , on the surface of the body  100 . 
     Recently, as the mobile communication speed has increased, the driving frequency of coil components used in mobile devices has also tended to increase. To smoothly use the coil component in the high frequency region, there is a need to reduce the parasitic capacitance in the coil component. On the other hand, the shorter the separation distance between the coil portions  310  and  320  and the external electrodes  610  and  620  is, the larger the contact area between the body  100  and the external electrodes  610  and  620  is, the parasitic capacitance in the coil component increases. In this embodiment, by forming the surface insulating layer  500  on the surface of the body  100 , the separation distance between the coil portions  310  and  320  and the external electrodes  610  and  620  is increased to significantly reduce parasitic capacitance occurring between the coil portions  310  and  320  and the external electrodes  610  and  620 . 
     The first and second external electrodes  610  and  620  are disposed on the surface of the body  100  to cover the first and second lead portions  410  and  420 . For example, the first and second external electrodes  610  and  620  are disposed on the surface insulating layer  500  and are connected to the first and second lead portions  410  and  420  exposed through the opening P, respectively. 
     Referring to  FIGS. 1 to 3 , since the first lead portion  410  is exposed to the first surface  101  of the body  100 , the first external electrode  610  may be formed on the first surface  101  of the body  100  to contact the first lead portion  410 . Since the second lead portion  420  is exposed to the second surface  102  of the body  100 , the second external electrode  620  may be formed on the second surface  102  of the body  100  to contact the second lead portion  420 . Although not illustrated in detail, the width of each of the first and second external electrodes  610  and  620  may be less than the width of the body  100 . As described above, the parasitic capacitance in the coil component  1000  increases as the area of contact between the body  100  and the external electrodes  610  and  620  increases. In this embodiment, by reducing the contact area between the body  100  and the external electrodes  610  and  620  on the first and second surfaces  101  and  102 , the parasitic capacitance occurring between the body  100  and the external electrodes  610  and  620  may be significantly reduced. 
     Referring to  FIG. 3 , the first and second external electrodes  610  and  620  include first metal layers  611  and  621  directly contacting the first and second lead portions  410  and  420  and filling the opening P, respectively. Since the first metal layers  611  and  621  are formed by plating directly on the surface insulating layer  500 , the first metal layers  611  and  621  are formed of a metal. The first metal layers  611  and  621  may be copper (Cu) metal layers having excellent electrical conductivity and low material costs, but the embodiment is not limited thereto. On the other hand, the first metal layers  611  and  621  are formed by plating, and thus, may not contain a glass component or a resin. In the case in which the body  100  is generally manufactured by curing the magnetic metal powder-resin composite, the external electrodes  610  and  620  may be formed using a conductive resin paste containing a conductive metal and a resin. In this case, as the conductive metal contained in the conductive resin paste, silver (Ag) having a low specific resistance is mainly used, but silver (Ag) has a high material cost as well as frequent contact failures with the coil portions  310  and  320 , and thus, excessive contact resistance may rise. Therefore, in the case of this embodiment of the present disclosure, since the first metal layers  611  and  621  are directly formed on the surface insulating layer  500 , contact failure between the coil portions  310  and  320  and the external electrodes  610  and  620  may be prevented. In addition, in the case in which the external electrodes  610  and  620  are formed using the conductive resin paste, adjusting the coating thickness of the conductive resin paste is difficult, and thus, the external electrodes  610  and  620  may be formed thick, causing a problem such as reduction in the volume of the body  100  thereby. However, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, since the external electrodes  610  and  620  are formed by plating a metal on the surface of the body  100 , the thickness of the external electrodes  610  and  620  may be adjusted to be relatively thinner. Accordingly, the volume of the body  100  may be increased, and inductance characteristics of the entirety of the component may be improved. 
     Referring to  FIG. 3 , the first and second external electrodes  610  and  620  further include first and second conductive resin layers  612  and  622  disposed on the third surface  103  or the fourth surface  104  of the body  100  and formed between the second surface insulating layer  520  and the first metal layers  611  and  621 , respectively. The first and second conductive resin layers  612  and  622  may include any one or more conductive metals selected from the group consisting of copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), and silver (Ag), and a thermosetting resin. The first and second conductive resin layers  612  and  622  are formed by applying and curing a conductive paste containing a conductive metal such as silver (Ag) and a resin. Referring to  FIG. 3 , the first and second conductive resin layers  612  and  622  are disposed on the third surface  103  or the fourth surface  104  of the body  100  to be disposed between the second surface insulating layer  520  and the first metal layers  611  and  621 . Although not illustrated in detail, by forming the above-described surface insulating layer  500  on the third surface  103  or the fourth surface  104  of the body  100  with a plating resist, the first metal layers  611  and  621  may cover only portions of the first and second conductive resin layers  612  and  622 . By using the thermosetting resin included in the first and second conductive resin layers  612  and  622  and the body  100  with the same thermosetting resin, for example, an epoxy resin, bonding strength between the body  100  and the external electrodes  610  and  620  may be improved. Among the first surface  101 , the third surface  103 , and the fourth surface  104 , the first conductive resin layer  612  is disposed only on the third surface  103 , or the fourth surface  104 , or both the third and fourth surfaces  103  and  104 . Among the second surface  101 , the third surface  103 , and the fourth surface  104 , the second conductive resin layer  622  is disposed only on the third surface  103 , or the fourth surface  104 , or both the third and fourth surfaces  103  and  104 . 
     The first and second external electrodes  610  and  620  further include second metal layers  613  and  623  disposed on the first metal layers  611  and  621  and formed of a different metal from that of the first metal layers  611  and  621 . The second metal layers  613  and  623  may include sequentially a first layer (not illustrated) containing nickel (Ni) or a second layer (not illustrated) including tin (Sn). The second layer (not illustrated), which is an outermost layer of the first and second external electrodes  610  and  620 , is formed of a tin (Sn) plating layer, thereby improving bonding force with solder when mounting the coil component  1000  on a printed circuit board. In addition, by forming the first layer (not illustrated) as a nickel (Ni) plating layer, the connectivity between the first metal layers  611  and  621  formed of a copper (Cu) plating layer and the second layer (not illustrated) formed of a tin (Sn) plating layer may be improved. 
     Second Embodiment 
       FIG. 5  is a view schematically illustrating a coil component according to a second embodiment.  FIG. 6  is a view schematically illustrating the arrangement structure of a surface insulating layer, an external electrode, and an additional insulating layer formed in the coil component of  FIG. 5 .  FIG. 7  is a view illustrating a cross section taken along line III-III′ of  FIG. 5 . 
       FIG. 5  mainly illustrates a body applied to the coil component according to the second embodiment, and  FIG. 6  mainly illustrates a surface insulating layer, an external electrode, and an additional insulating layer applied to the coil component according to the second embodiment. 
     Compared to the coil component  1000  according to the first embodiment, the presence or absence of an additional insulating layer  700  is different in a coil component  2000  according to this embodiment. Therefore, in describing this embodiment, only the additional insulating layer  700  different from the first embodiment will be described. The rest of the configuration of this embodiment may be applied as described in the first embodiment. 
     Referring to  FIGS. 5 and 7 , the coil component  2000  of this embodiment further includes the additional insulating layer  700  disposed on the first metal layers  611  and  621 . The additional insulating layer  700  is interposed between the first metal layers  611  and  621  and the second metal layers  612  and  622 . The width of the additional insulating layer  700  in the Y direction may be substantially the same as the width of the body  100  in the Y direction. As described above, the parasitic capacitance in the coil component increases as the separation distance between the coil portions  310  and  320  and the external electrodes  610  and  620  is relatively shorter. In this embodiment, by further disposing the additional insulating layer  700  on the first surface  101  and the second surface  102  of the body  100 , the separation distance between the coil portion  310  and  320  and the external electrodes  610  and  620  may increase, thereby significantly reducing parasitic capacitance occurring between the coil portions  310  and  320  and the external electrodes  610  and  620 . To ensure a connection between the first metal layer  611  and the second metal layers  613  and a connection between the first metal layer  621  and the second metal layers  623 , the additional insulating layer  700  may not be disposed on the first surface  101  and the second surface  102 . 
     As set forth above, according to an exemplary embodiment, parasitic capacitance may be reduced by adjusting a distance between a coil portion and an external electrode or an area of contact between a body and an external electrode. 
     In addition, according to an exemplary embodiment, the reduction in the volume of a magnetic substance of a body may be effectively prevented.
