Abstract
Abstract An LC composite component having an integral sintered body formed by cofiring green compacts of an inductor material and a capacitor material in an adhered state. The inductor material and capacitor are both capable of being sintered at a low temperature, so that they may be cofired with substantially no counterdiffusion taking place between them upon cofiring.
