Multi-layer ceramic electronic component

A multi-layer ceramic electronic component, comprising:

• a multi-layer unit that includes
• an end surface oriented in a first direction,
• a side surface oriented in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction,
• a ridge connecting the end surface and the side surface,
• laminated ceramic layers, and
• internal electrodes disposed between the ceramic layers along a third direction perpendicular to the first and second directions and drawn to the end surface;
• and
• an external electrode that covers the multi-layer unit from the end surface to the side surface, the multi-layer ceramic electronic component satisfying the following relationships:
• 0.0094≥A/L≥0.0142*ln(L)+0.0256,
