Patent ID: 8188827

Claim:
An inductor component comprising: electrode portions; a winding portion in which a conductor is wound by three or more turns; lead portions located at both ends of the winding portion and connecting the winding portion and the electrode portions; and a laminate body in which a plurality of insulators are laminated together, wherein winding intervals of respective turns in the winding portion decrease monotonically from one end to an other end of the winding portion, wherein the inductor component is mounted in an inductor component mounting structure in a power line to an IC or in an output line from the IC, wherein an electrode portion of the electrode portions connected to the one end of the winding portion via the lead portion is connected to the IC, wherein the conductor includes a plurality of conductors juxtaposed in a laminate direction of the insulators in the laminate body, wherein the winding portion is constructed by electrically connecting adjacent conductors of the plurality of conductors in the laminate direction to each other, and wherein intervals in the laminate direction between the plurality of conductors decrease monotonically in the laminate direction.
