Method For Manufacturing Electronic Component With Coil

An inductor includes an air-core coil assembled with a T-shaped core and a composite magnetic material and resin mixture embedding the T-shaped core and the air-core coil. The air-core coil has: a coil member having a coil axis and first and second sides opposite to each other; and first and second leads that are integrally connected to the coil member. The first and second leads respectively have: first and second bent members at the first side; first and second ends at the second side; and first and second bottom extensions respectively connected between the first and second bent members and the first and second ends. The first and second bent members extend in a first direction parallel to the coil axis, the first and second ends extend in a second direction parallel to the coil axis, and the first and second bottom extensions extend perpendicular to the coil axis.
