An inductor for a system-on-a-chip and a method for manufacturing the inductor are disclosed. The inductor comprises a conductive line formed by connecting a plurality of conductive patterns grown from a seed layer formed on a lower wiring. The method comprises using an electrolytic plating process or an electroless plating process to grow the plurality of adjacent conductive patterns from the seed layer until they become connected. The method also enables adjusting the height and width of the conductive line to desired levels.
