Recently, energy harvesting technologies are considered as the great alternatives to reduce the dependency on secondary batteries. In this paper, we proposed PCB type energy harvester which can be directly integrated with other electronic components on same board. To form the three dimensional coil structure, two PCBs with patterned metal lines are solder bonded. For magnetic induction, inside of coil structure was filled with magnetic substance and rotary motioned external magnets are applied to near the harvester. The effects of metal wire width on PCB, thickness of magnetic substance, and frequency of rotary motion on energy harvesting performance are analyzed by computer simulation and experiments. Experimental results showed 29.89 ${\mu}W$ of power generation performance at the frequency of 5.2 Hz and it is shown that designed harvester can be effectively applied on vibration environment with very limited frequency.
