Disclosed herein are a power inductor in which aspect ratios of the innermost pattern and the outermost pattern are similar with those of the intermediate pattern and a manufacturing method thereof. The power inductor includes coil patterns formed on one surface or both surfaces of a core insulating layer; insulating patterns bonded to at least one of an innermost pattern and an outermost pattern of the coil patterns; metal layers plated on surfaces of the coil patterns; and an insulator covering the coil patterns including the metal layers.
