Abstract:
An inductor component  1 a  includes a resin layer  3  and an inductor electrode  6 . The inductor electrode  6  includes metal pins  7 a  to  7 d  that extend in the resin layer  3  with end faces  70 a  to  70 d  of the metal pins  7 a  to  7 d  exposed from an upper surface  3 a  of the resin layer  3 , and upper wiring plates  8 a  and  8 b  that are disposed on the upper surface  3 a  of the resin layer  3  and that connect the end faces  70 a  and  70 c  of the short metal pins  7 a  and  7 c  and the end faces  70 b  and  70 d  of the long metal pins  7 b  and  7 d  to each other. In this case, the inductor electrode  6  is formed of the metal pins  7 a  to  7 d  and the wiring plates  8 a  to  8 c  that each have a specific electrical resistance lower than that of a conductive paste and plating.

Claim (Index 10):
A method of manufacturing the inductor component according to  claim 1 , the method comprising:\n a step of preparing a first metal pin and a second metal pin, wherein the second metal pin has one end face having an area larger than an area of one end face of the first metal pin and is longer than the first metal pin; a step of connecting the one end face of the first metal pin and the one end face of the second metal pin to a surface of a first metal plate supported by a flat frame to form a first structure, wherein in the first structure, the metal pins having different heights are stood on the surface of the first metal plate; a step of connecting a surface of a second metal plate supported by a flat frame to the other end face of the first metal pin to form a second structure, wherein in the second structure, an inductor electrode including the first metal plate, the second metal plate, the first metal pin, and the second metal pin is formed; a step of connecting the other end face of the second metal pin to a main surface of a circuit board having a component mounted to form a third structure, wherein in the third structure, the component is disposed between the main surface of the circuit board and the second metal plate; a step of filling a space between the first metal plate and the main surface of the circuit board with a resin to form a fourth structure including the third structure and a resin layer; and a step of processing the fourth structure such that the flat frame of the first metal plate and the flat frame of the second metal plate are removed.
