Abstract

An electronic component includes a primary coil including n primary coil conductor layers and a parallel primary coil conductor layer, and secondary and tertiary coils including respectively n secondary and tertiary coil conductor layers. Respective ones of the primary, secondary and tertiary coil conductor layers are arrayed alternately in this order from one side toward other side in laminating direction. The parallel primary coil conductor layer is electrically connected to a predetermined primary coil conductor layer, has the substantially same shape as the predetermined primary coil conductor layer in a plan view, and is disposed on the other side in the laminating direction relative to the tertiary coil conductor layer disposed at a farthest position on the other side in the laminating direction.
