Claim:
A common mode choke coil comprising: a quadrilateral core; first and second core covers disposed opposite to each other on the upper and lower surfaces of the core so as to cover the outer periphery of the core; and rectangular copper wires extending from the outer peripheries of the first and second core covers and wound on the opposite side portions of the core; wherein the second core cover is disposed on a component-mounting face of a circuit board; wherein the first and second core covers include a pair of linear portions surrounding the corresponding opposite sides of the core which linear portions constitute winding portions of the rectangular copper wires, and the lower surface of the second core cover is provided with a pedestal portion that is integrally formed therewith, wherein the pedestal portion protrudes more toward the component-mounting face than the winding portions, and extends out along the component-mounting face in a direction perpendicular to axis lines of the winding portions; and wherein the lower face at the tip of the protruding part of the pedestal portion is provided with seat faces on which parts of the rectangular copper wires drawn from the winding portions toward the component-mounting face are provided as mounting terminals, and tip portions of the rectangular copper wires are bent upward from the seat faces at the edge of the tip of the protruding part of the pedestal portion.
