Abstract

A coil part is provided. The coil part includes a coil layer including a core and a first coil and a second coil disposed on and under the core, a lower magnetic layer bonded under the coil layer, and an upper magnetic layer bonded on the coil layer. Accordingly, it is possible to improve process and productivity and cut fabrication costs by preventing process defects that occur during the fabrication process of a coil part using a ferrite substrate.

Claims

1. A coil part, which comprises:

a coil layer including a core and a first coil and a second coil disposed on and under the core;

a lower magnetic layer bonded under the coil layer;

an upper magnetic layer bonded on the coil layer;

a first external extraction electrode directly contacting the upper magnetic layer and having a prominence region connecting an end portion thereof to the first coil, wherein the prominence region of the first external extraction electrode is projecting in a space between the core and the upper magnetic layer; and

a second external extraction electrode directly contacting the lower magnetic layer and having a prominence region connecting an end portion thereof to the second coil, wherein the prominence region of the second external extraction electrode is projecting in a space between the core and the lower magnetic layer.

2. The coil part according to claim 1, wherein the core is formed of at least one of a glass epoxy, a Bismaleimide Triazine (BT) resin, and a polyimide.

3. The coil part according to claim 1, wherein the first coil and the second coil are formed in the shape of a coil by patterning metal layers disposed on and under the core.

4. The coil part according to claim 3, wherein the patterning is performed through a lithography process.

5. The coil part according to claim 3, wherein the first coil and the second coil are patterned simultaneously on both surfaces of the core.

6. The coil part according to claim 1, wherein each of the lower magnetic layer and the upper magnetic layer is bonded to the coil layer through an adhesive layer.

7. The coil part according to claim 6, wherein the adhesive layer is disposed in the periphery of the coil layer such that a space is formed between the coil layer and the upper magnetic layer and between the coil layer and the lower magnetic layer.

8. The coil part according to claim 1, which further comprises a central magnetic layer that protrudes from any one of the upper magnetic layer and the lower magnetic layer and pierces the center of the coil layer.

9. The coil part according to claim 1, wherein the lower magnetic layer and the upper magnetic layer are formed in the shape of a sheet including a ferrite.
