A multilayer inductor comprising a coil embedded in a magnetic portion, and a magnetic gap formed by a non-magnetic portion in part of a magnetic path, the magnetic portion being made of Ni ferrite, whose relative temperature coefficient ±µ ir of initial permeability at a frequency of 1 MHz is more than +10 ppm/°C and +40 ppm/°C or less between -40°C and +80°C, the non-magnetic portion being made of Zn ferrite containing more Zn than in the magnetic portion and having a Curie temperature Tc of -50°C or lower, and the Zn content changing continuously in boundary regions between the non-magnetic portion and the magnetic portion, whereby the thickness of the magnetic gap changes with the temperature. |
