Patent ID: 7327207

Claim:
A lamination type electronic component comprising: a laminate having insulating layers laminated on each other in a lamination direction; and a coil having a coil axis extending in the lamination direction of the insulating layers, the coil being disposed inside of the laminate; wherein the coil includes conductor patterns having symmetrical axes that are substantially perpendicular to each other disposed on main surfaces of the insulating layers of the laminate and a via hole formed in one of the insulating layers located between adjacent ones of the conductor patterns in the lamination direction of the insulating layers, the via holes connecting the conductor patterns in series; and the adjacent conductor patterns are arranged such that, when seen in the lamination direction of the insulating layers, one of the adjacent conductor patterns is located on the inside edge or outside edge of another of the adjacent conductor patterns such that the one conductor pattern partially overlaps the another conductor pattern via one of the insulating layers.
