<p>A molded coil device (100) includes a coil (120) comprised of a plurality of turns of a conductive material (2) through a plurality of planes and an integral body (110) comprised of an insulating and nonmagnetic material burying the coil (120). The coil (120) is first formed and thereafter is sintered/pressed with the insulating and nonmagnetic material to form the integral body (110). The molded coil device (100) is advantageously applied within an optical pickup actuator of an optical disc drive.
