Patent ID: 8143988

Claim:
A multilayer inductor comprising: a multilayer body including a plurality of insulating layers stacked therein; a plurality of first coil electrodes each looping through a length of one turn on one of the insulating layers so as to make a ring-shaped track when viewed in plan in a stacking direction, each first coil electrode including a first end portion located on the ring-shaped track and a second end portion located off the ring-shaped track; a first via hole conductor for connecting neighboring ones of the first end portions in the stacking direction; a second via hole conductor for connecting neighboring ones of the second end portions in the stacking direction; and second coil electrodes provided above and beneath the plurality of first coil electrodes in the stacking direction, the second coil electrodes being electrically connected to the plurality of first coil electrodes, each of the second coil electrodes including a land portion that overlaps a region surrounded by the first end portions and the second end portions of the first coil electrodes when viewed in plan in a stacking direction.
