Definitions

  • the present invention relates to coil components, methods for manufacturing coil components, and electronic/electrical devices.
  • Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 describe coil components in which the lead-out portion and the external electrode are connected by a connection electrode or support electrode inside the main body.
  • Patent Document 3 describes a coil component in which the opposing faces of the main body are connected in the longitudinal direction so as to cross the lead-out portion, and the face perpendicular to the longitudinal direction is exposed from the main body.
  • Patent Document 4 describes a coil component in which a bump electrode formed on the upper surface of a dummy lead-out conductor connects a planar spiral conductor and an external electrode (lower surface) through a resin layer containing metal magnetic powder.
  • Patent Documents 5, 6, and 7 describe coil components in which the lead-out electrode or post portion inside the base body is extended in the axial direction of the coil to connect the coil and the terminal electrode (lower surface).
  • the magnetic properties of the product change significantly depending on the magnetic field generated around the connection electrodes and support members. Furthermore, when the coil is covered with a main body containing magnetic powder, it is desirable to ensure sufficient positioning accuracy of the coil relative to the main body and to reduce resistance at the connection interface between the connection electrodes and the pull-out parts.
  • the present invention aims to provide a coil component that can obtain sufficient positioning accuracy of the coil part relative to the main body part and stable magnetic properties, a manufacturing method for the coil component, and an electronic/electrical device.
  • One aspect of the present invention is a coil component comprising: a coil section having a coil conductive section including a spiral section that is spiral-shaped when viewed in a first direction; a main body section including a magnetic powder that has an outer surface extending in the first direction and two intersecting surfaces aligned in the first direction and covers at least a portion of the coil section at the intersecting surfaces; and a support section that contacts the coil section to form a first interface that intersects with the first direction, the support section having a support exposed surface exposed from the main body section, the support exposed surface including a first exposed surface having an in-plane direction along the first direction.
  • the support portion in contact with the coil portion provides reinforcement in the first direction, improving the positioning accuracy of the coil portion relative to the main body portion and improving the strength of the coil component.
  • the support portion may have a conductive support conductor portion, and at least a portion of the first interface may be a contact interface between a conductive surface of the support conductor portion and a conductive surface of the coil conductive portion. This improves the connection area with the conductive material of the coil component (e.g., an external terminal or solder).
  • the exposed support surface may include an exposed conductive surface made of a support conductor portion. This stabilizes the solder joint surface between the exposed conductive surface and the external electrode.
  • the exposed support surface may include an exposed conductive surface that is exposed between two intersecting surfaces aligned in the first direction.
  • the first exposed surface may be configured as an exposed conductive surface. This improves adhesion between the exposed conductive surface, which is at least a portion of the first exposed surface of the coil component, and the conductive material (e.g., external terminals or solder).
  • the conductive material e.g., external terminals or solder
  • the support exposed surface may include a second exposed surface that intersects with the first direction, and at least a portion of the second exposed surface may be configured as an exposed conductive surface. This improves adhesion between the exposed conductive surface, which is at least a portion of the second exposed surface of the coil component, and the conductive material (e.g., external terminals or solder).
  • the conductive material e.g., external terminals or solder
  • At least a portion of the first exposed surface may be an exposed conductive surface. This improves adhesion between the exposed conductive surface, which is at least a portion of the first exposed surface of the coil component, and a conductive material (e.g., an external terminal or solder), and between the exposed conductive surface, which is at least a portion of the second exposed surface, and a conductive material (e.g., an external terminal or solder).
  • a conductive material e.g., an external terminal or solder
  • the coil component may be configured so that the entire outer surface is insulated. This prevents solder from adhering to the outer surface of the coil component and reduces the installation area of the coil component.
  • At least one of the two intersecting surfaces may be insulated by an insulating layer. This insulates the side opposite the mounting surface of the coil component, reducing the installation area of the coil component.
  • the insulating layer may include a layer made of resin with an average thickness of 0.10 ⁇ m to 10.0 ⁇ m. This prevents the magnetic properties from being reduced by the supporting conductor portion, and maintains the magnetic properties of the coil component.
  • the coil component may further include an external electrode in contact with the exposed conductive surface. This stabilizes the solder joint surface formed by the external electrode.
  • a portion of the outermost surface may be configured as an exposed conductive surface. This allows the exposed conductive surface to be directly connected to a conductive member (e.g., an external terminal or solder), and the absence of an external electrode allows the coil component to be made smaller.
  • a conductive member e.g., an external terminal or solder
  • the coil conductive portion includes a spiral portion and a pull-out portion that is continuously connected to the spiral portion in a direction perpendicular to the first direction, the pull-out portion has a pull-out portion exposed surface that is exposed from the outer surface of the main body portion, and at least a portion of the first interface may be configured to be a contact interface between the conductive surface of the pull-out portion and the conductive surface of the support conductor portion. This prevents an increase in the length of the pull-out portion, and reduces the magnetic flux offset by the pull-out portion.
  • the support portion may be configured to contact the conductive surface of the coil conductive portion so as to taper. This increases the volume of the magnetic powder near the coil conductive portion, allowing for effective use of the magnetic flux.
  • the exposed surface of the draw-out portion may extend in a direction perpendicular to the first direction. This improves adhesion between the exposed surface of the draw-out portion and the conductive member (e.g., external terminal or solder).
  • the conductive member e.g., external terminal or solder
  • the main body may be configured such that the two surfaces parallel to the first direction are connected via the support. This reduces the deterioration of the magnetic properties of the coil component and improves the adhesion between the support and the conductive member (e.g., external terminal or solder).
  • the conductive member e.g., external terminal or solder
  • the outer surface includes a plurality of faces, two adjacent faces of which are connected by a connecting portion, and the support portion may be configured so that at least a portion of the connecting portion is exposed from the main body portion. This improves adhesion between the outer surface of the coil component and the conductive member (e.g., external terminal or solder) by using the supporting portion exposed from the main body portion as the connecting portion.
  • the conductive member e.g., external terminal or solder
  • the main body may have a first recess recessed in the first direction on at least one of two faces aligned in the first direction, and at least a portion of the exposed conductive surface may be located on the concave surface of the first recess. This reduces the volume (height) occupied by the coil component after soldering due to the concave surface of the first recess.
  • the coil portion may have a second recess recessed in a first direction, and at least a portion of the first interface may be configured to be a contact interface between the support portion and at least a portion of the recess surface consisting of the opening edge and inner surface of the second recess. This ensures a contact interface between the support portion and the coil portion, improving the bonding strength between the support portion and the coil portion.
  • the support part may have a conductive support conductor part, and at least a portion of the first interface may be configured to be a contact interface between a conductive surface of at least a portion of the recessed surface and the conductive surface of the support conductor part. This allows conductive contact with the support part to be achieved at the second recess.
  • the support portion has a supporting soft magnetic portion, at least a portion of the first interface is a contact interface between the supporting soft magnetic portion and the coil portion, and the relative permeability of the supporting soft magnetic portion in the first direction may be greater than the relative permeability of the main body portion in the first direction. This improves the magnetic properties of the coil component due to the supporting soft magnetic portion of the support portion.
  • the main body may be configured such that the two surfaces parallel to the first direction are connected via the support. This improves the magnetic properties of the coil component.
  • the outer surface has a plurality of faces, two adjacent faces of which are connected by a connecting portion, and the support portion may be configured so that at least a portion of the connecting portion is exposed from the main body portion. This improves adhesion between the outer surface of the coil component and the conductive member (e.g., external terminal or solder) by using the supporting portion exposed from the main body portion as the connecting portion.
  • the conductive member e.g., external terminal or solder
  • the main body may have a rectangular parallelepiped shape with sides parallel to the first direction, and the support may be arranged to include at least one of the ends of the four sides of the main body that are parallel to the first direction. This improves the magnetic properties of the coil component.
  • the supporting soft magnetic portion may be an insulator. This reduces eddy current loss in the coil component.
  • the support portion may have a supporting soft magnetic portion, and the relative permeability of the supporting soft magnetic portion in the first direction may be greater than the relative permeability of the main body portion in the first direction. This improves the magnetic properties of the coil component.
  • Another aspect of the present invention is a manufacturing method for a coil component that includes a first step of forming a conductor pattern including multiple spiral portions that are spiral-shaped when viewed in a first direction and connecting portions that connect the multiple spiral portions; a second step of forming a support member that extends in the first direction from the connecting portions after the first step; a third step of supplying a material including magnetic powder so as to cover the conductor pattern on at least both sides in the first direction and forming it into a plate material; and a fourth step of cutting the plate material so that the first direction is parallel to the cut surface, and separating the plate material into multiple first members (products) including the spiral portions and parts of the connecting portions and a second member including the remaining parts of the connecting portions, and in the fourth step, the second member includes all or part of the support member.
  • the first step may include forming the conductor pattern and then providing an insulating portion on the surface of the conductor pattern.
  • the second step may include forming an insulating portion on the surface of the conductor pattern and the surface of the support member after forming the support member.
  • the portion of the plate where the support member is arranged may be half-cut from a first direction to form a linear recess extending in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction with the support member exposed at the bottom surface, and the plate may be cut so that the dividing line between the first member and the second member passes through the bottom surface of the linear recess, forming a step in the first member with the support member exposed at the underside of the step.
  • the first member in the fourth step, may include a portion of the support member, and the support member may be exposed on a surface of the first member.

  • the electronic/electrical device is an electronic/electrical device in which the coil components 100A-100G according to one embodiment of the present invention are mounted, and the coil conductive portion 20 of the coil components 100A-100G is connected to a substrate at exposed conductive portions located at two ends of the coil conductive portion 20 and exposed to the outside.
  • the first terminal portion 41 and the second terminal portion 42 correspond to the exposed conductive portions
  • the first terminal portion 41 and the second terminal portion 42 and the external electrodes 16A and 16b correspond to the exposed conductive portions
  • the lead-out portion exposed surfaces 140 and 240, the dummy end surface portions 71E and 72E, the connecting portion exposed surface 150, and the first exposed surface 70C correspond to the exposed conductive portions.
  • the external electrodes 16A and 16b correspond to exposed conductive portions.
  • the electronic/electrical device is mounted with the coil components 100A-100G according to an embodiment of the present invention, and therefore the device can be easily miniaturized. Furthermore, even if a large current flows through the device or a high frequency is applied, the coil components 100A-100G are unlikely to deteriorate in function or cause problems due to heat generation.
  • the coil conductive portion 20 has the first conductive portion 201 and the second conductive portion 202, but a configuration having only either the first conductive portion 201 or the second conductive portion 202 may also be used.
  • the coil conductive portion 20 is made of one type of conductive material, this is not limiting. It may also be made of multiple materials.
  • Coil component 10 Coil portion 11: First spiral conductive portion (spiral portion) 12, 13, 22, 23: End portion 14: First lead portion 15A, 15B, 15C, 15D: First connecting portion 16A, 16B: External electrode (exposed conductive portion) 17: Second recess 20: Coil conductive portion 21: Second spiral conductive portion (spiral portion) 24: Second lead portion 30: Main body portion 30a, 30b, 30c, 30d: Outer surface 30e, 30f: Intersecting surface 41: First terminal portion 41a, 42a: Side portion 42: Second terminal portion 50, 60: Exterior coating 70A: First interface 70B: Support exposed surface 70C: First exposed surface (exposed conductive portion) 70D: second exposed surface 71: second dummy conductive portion 72: first dummy conductive portion 71E, 72E: dummy end surface portion 80: second insulating portion 90: first insulating portion 91: sheet base material 140, 240: lead-out portion exposed surface (exposed conductive portion) 150
