US Patent 7113389 Surface mounted electronic component

A multilayer inductor has a rectangular parallelepiped element body and its length in the lengthwise direction (L), length in the direction of height (H), and length in the direction of width (W) are L≦0.6 mm, H≦0.3 mm, and W≦0.3 mm, respectively. Terminal electrodes are provided so as to cover the vertices of the element body and come round to the side face from the end faces on both sides. The radius of curvature R of the vertex of the terminal electrode is set to a value being 10% or more and 20% or less of H or W.
