Abstract:
A laminated coil component has a laminated body which is formed by laminating a plurality of ferrite layers, a helical coil which is provided in the laminated body, and a plurality of external electrodes which are provided on the surface of the laminated body and are electrically connected to the helical coil and are mainly composed of Cu. The ferrite layers have an exposed region exposed from the surface of the laminated body without being covered with the external electrodes. A surface resistivity of the exposed region of the ferrite layers is more than 104Ω and less than 107Ω.

An electronic component includes an element body and outer electrodes on the element body. The element body includes top and bottom opposed surfaces, and side surfaces connecting the top and bottom surfaces. An outer electrode includes a lower layer electrode on the top surface and the bottom surface, and an upper layer electrode overlying the lower layer electrode and extending from an upper side of the lower electrode onto the side surface.
