Abstract

A coil component includes: an internal coil; a magnetic body having the internal coil embedded therein, and having first and second surfaces opposing each other in a first direction, third and fourth surfaces opposing each other in a second direction, and fifth and sixth surfaces opposing each other in a third direction; and external electrodes connected to the internal coil and disposed on outer surfaces of the magnetic body. 0<T 1 /T 2 <1, where T 1 is a thickness of the magnetic body at a central axis of the internal coil, and T 2 is a thickness of the magnetic body at a point B positioned to be spaced apart from the central axis of the internal coil by a predetermined distance.

Claims (31)

1. A coil component comprising:

an internal coil;

a magnetic body having the internal coil embedded therein, and having first and second surfaces opposing each other in a first direction, third and fourth surfaces opposing each other in a second direction, and fifth and sixth surfaces opposing each other in a third direction; and

external electrodes connected to the internal coil and disposed on outer surfaces of the magnetic body,

wherein 0<T 1 /T 2 <1, where T 1 is a thickness of the magnetic body at a central axis of the internal coil, and T 2 is a thickness of the magnetic body at a point B positioned to be spaced apart from the central axis of the internal coil by a predetermined distance,

wherein the external electrodes are not disposed on any portion of the magnetic body where the thickness of the magnetic body is less than or equal to T 1 .

2. The coil component of claim 1 , wherein T 2 has a maximum value when the point B is positioned in a region in which the external electrode and the magnetic body overlap each other.

3. The coil component of claim 1 , wherein T 2 has a maximum value when the point B is positioned in a position most distant from the central axis of the internal coil.

4. The coil component of claim 1 , wherein T 1 /T 2 <0.96.

5. The coil component of claim 1 , wherein 0.90<T 1 /T 2 <0.96.

6. The coil component of claim 1 , wherein T 2 is within the range of 0.5 mm to 0.65 mm.

7. The coil component of claim 1 , wherein T 1 is larger than a length of the internal coil in the first direction.

8. The coil component of claim 1 , wherein the first surface includes a concave region based on the central axis of the internal coil.

9. The coil component of claim 1 , wherein the first surface has a concave form based on the central axis of the internal coil.

10. The coil component of claim 1 , wherein the second surface includes a concave region based on the central axis of the internal coil.

11. The coil component of claim 1 , wherein the second surface has a concave form based on the central axis of the internal coil.

12. The coil component of claim 1 , wherein the external electrodes include first and second external electrodes disposed to face each other in the second direction.

13. The coil component of claim 1 , wherein the first surface includes a concave region based on the central axis of the internal coil and the second surface has a flat shape.

14. The coil component of claim 1 , wherein the first and second surfaces each include a concave region based on the central axis of the internal coil.

15. The coil component of claim 1 , wherein the first and second surfaces each include a concave region based on the central axis of the internal coil, and the third and fourth surfaces have a length shorter than T 2 .

16. A board having a coil component, comprising:

a printed circuit board having a plurality of electrode pads disposed thereon; and

the coil component installed on the printed circuit board,

wherein the coil component includes:

an internal coil;

a magnetic body having the internal coil embedded therein, and having first and second surfaces opposing each other in a first direction, third and fourth surfaces opposing each other in a second direction, and fifth and sixth surfaces opposing each other in a third direction; and

external electrodes connected to the internal coil and disposed on outer surfaces of the magnetic body,

wherein 0<T 1 /T 2 <1, where T 1 is a thickness of the magnetic body at a central axis of the internal coil, and T 2 is a thickness of the magnetic body at a point B positioned to be spaced apart from the central axis of the internal coil by a predetermined distance,

wherein the external electrodes are not disposed on any portion of the magnetic body where the thickness of the magnetic body is less than or equal to T 1 .

17. The board having a coil component of claim 16 , wherein the first surface includes a concave region toward the second surface based on the central axis of the internal coil.

18. The board having a coil component of claim 16 , wherein the second surface includes a concave region toward the first surface based on the central axis of the internal coil.
