Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic component is provided that includes a substrate, an insulator layer, an inductor in the insulator layer, planar conductors extending along the substrate, and connecting conductors electrically connected to the planar conductors. The inductor includes surface direction conductors and a plurality of inductor via conductors that connect the surface direction conductors. A direction of a current flowing through an inductor via conductor among the plurality of inductor via conductors configuring a portion of a helical coil having a winding axis along the surface of the substrate, the inductor via conductor being adjacent to the connecting conductors, and a direction of a current flowing through the connecting conductors are opposite to each other.
