Abstract: A multilayer coil component includes an element body including soft magnetic metal powders and a coil disposed in the element body. The coil includes a plurality of internal conductors electrically connected to each other. The plurality of internal conductors are separated from each other in a first direction and are adjacent to each other in the first direction. An average particle diameter of the soft magnetic metal powders located at an inner side of the coil when viewing from the first direction is larger than an average particle diameter of the soft magnetic metal powders located between the internal conductors adjacent to each other in the first direction.

Abstract: In a stepwise structure formed in a multilayer coil component, a difference occurs in a shrinkage amount between a maximum film thickness portion in which the number of layers is large and a minimum film thickness portion in which the number of layers is small due to portions different in the number of layers of coil parts (that is, upper coil part, lower coil part, and connecting part) adjacent to each other like the maximum film thickness portion and the minimum film thickness portion, readily causing a crack by an inner stress due to the difference in the shrinkage amount. In a multilayer coil component according to the present disclosure, a stress relaxation part overlapping with a maximum film thickness portion whose shrinkage amount is large is provided to relax inner stress in a stepwise structure, resulting in prevention of a crack.

Abstract: A multilayer coil component includes an element body, a coil including a plurality of internal conductors, and a plurality of stress-relaxation spaces. The plurality of internal conductors are separated from each other in a first direction in the element body. Each stress-relaxation space is in contact with a surface of the corresponding internal conductor and powders exist in each stress-relaxation space. The element body includes element body regions located between the internal conductors adjacent to each other in the first direction. Each stress-relaxation space includes a first boundary surface with each internal conductor and a second boundary surface with each element body region. The first boundary surface and the second boundary surface oppose each other in the first direction. A distance between the first boundary surface and the second boundary surface is smaller than a thickness of each element body region in the first direction.

Abstract: A multilayer coil component includes an element body having a multilayer structure including a first element body portion formed of a ferrite element body material, and a second element body portion laminated on the first element body portion and formed of a ferrite element body material having a composition different from the ferrite element body material forming the first element body portion, a multilayer coil having an axis parallel to a lamination direction of the element body, and a stress alleviation portion provided in an inner region of the multilayer coil when viewed from the lamination direction. In the multilayer coil component, the stress alleviation portion is provided in the inner region of the multilayer coil in which a stress tends to be concentrated to alleviate the stress in the inner region of the multilayer coil, and thereby occurrence of cracking in the element body can be suppressed.

Abstract: In a multilayer coil component, an end of a lower coil layer and an end of a connecting part are directly overlapped, and the end of the lower coil layer includes a contact edge positioned on a side of the connecting part and being in contact with the connecting part and a non-contact edge positioned on a side opposite to the connecting part and not being in contact with the connecting part. Then, the contact edge and the non-contact edge are not overlapped when viewed from a laminated direction. Consequently, a propagation distance of a crack becomes longer as compared with the case where an end face is parallel to the laminated direction, effectively suppressing advance of the crack. Suppressed advance of a crack in this manner makes the multilayer coil component provide a high component strength as a whole.
