Ferrite core inductor and method for producing an inductive component

In a first aspect, the invention provides a ferrite core with a yoke body having a length dimension, a width dimension and a height dimension, which are each oriented perpendicular to each other, wherein the length dimension is greater than the height dimension and / or the width dimension. In a side surface of the yoke body, a positioning structure and a different positioning of the alignment structure are provided which are spaced apart along the length dimension of between 5% and 75% of the length dimension.
