1. An electronic component, comprising:

  • a plurality of substantially rectangular insulator layers formed as a laminate in a lamination direction;

    a coil provided in the laminate, said coil including a first end positioned at an upper side of the laminate in the lamination direction relative to a second end of the coil;

    external electrodes provided at an undersurface of the laminate; and

    a via hole conductor provided in the laminate and connecting the first end and one of the external electrodes, whereinthe coil is formed by connecting a plurality of coil conductors that are overlapped with each other to form a substantially annular orbit when viewed in plan view in the lamination direction;

    the substantially annular orbit is arranged about an intersection of diagonal lines of the insulator layers and is divided into a first orbit portion and a second orbit portion by a straight line parallel to a short side of the rectangular insulator layers,in the case where an orbit obtained by axisymmetric movement of the first orbit portion relative to the straight line is defined as a third orbit portion, a part of the second orbit portion is overlapped with a part of the third orbit portion, and a portion of the second orbit portion non overlapped with the third orbit portion is positioned closer to the intersection than a non overlapped portion of the third orbit portion, andthe via hole conductor is provided in a region outboard the non overlapped portion of the second orbit portion and inboard an outer side of the non overlapped portion of the third orbit portion.
