Abstract

A method of manufacturing an inductor component includes preparing an insulating paste that is photosensitive and that includes a filler material composed of quartz, a glass material and a resin material, and a conductive paste, forming a first insulating layer by applying the insulating paste, and exposing the first insulating layer in a state where a first portion of the first insulating layer is shielded by a mask. The method further includes removing the first portion of the first insulating layer to form a groove at a position corresponding to the first portion, applying the conductive paste in the groove to form a coil conductor layer in the groove, and applying the insulating paste on the first insulating layer and the coil conductor layer to form a second insulating layer.

Claims (21)

1. A method of manufacturing an inductor component comprising:

preparing a negative photosensitive insulating paste that includes a filler material composed of quartz, a glass material and a resin material, and a negative photosensitive conductive paste;

forming a first insulating layer by applying the insulating paste;

exposing the first insulating layer in a state where a first portion of the first insulating layer is shielded by a mask;

removing the first portion of the first insulating layer to form a groove at a position corresponding to the first portion;

applying the conductive paste in the groove to form a coil conductor layer in the groove; and

applying the insulating paste directly on the first insulating layer and directly on the coil conductor layer to form a second insulating layer, wherein a portion of the coil conductor layer projects outward from the first insulating layer, and the second insulating layer covers the portion of the coil conductor layer and a surface of the first insulating layer from which the portion of the coil conductor layer projects.

2. The method of manufacturing an inductor component according to claim 1 ,

wherein, in the exposing the first insulating layer, exposure is performed with light not including a wave length of about 350 nm or less.

3. The method of manufacturing an inductor component according to claim 2 ,

wherein, after the forming the second insulating layer, firing is performed at a temperature of about 800° C. to about 1000° C.

4. The method of manufacturing an inductor component according to claim 3 ,

wherein, in the preparing the insulating paste and the conductive paste, a content ratio of the filler material to the glass material is about 20 vol % to about 50 vol %.

5. The method of manufacturing an inductor component according to claim 2 ,

wherein, in the preparing the insulating paste and the conductive paste, a content ratio of the filler material to the glass material is about 20 vol % to about 50 vol %.

6. The method of manufacturing an inductor component according to claim 1 ,

wherein, after the forming the second insulating layer, firing is performed at a temperature of about 800° C. to about 1000° C.

7. The method of manufacturing an inductor component according to claim 6 ,

wherein, in the preparing the insulating paste and the conductive paste, a content ratio of the filler material to the glass material is about 20 vol % to about 50 vol %.

8. The method of manufacturing an inductor component according to claim 1 ,

wherein, in the preparing the insulating paste and the conductive paste, a content ratio of the filler material to the glass material is about 20 vol % to about 50 vol %.
