Abstract
A chip electronic component includes a stack, a first external electrode disposed at least on a first end surface and a first main surface of the stack, a second external electrode disposed at least on a second end surface and a first main surface of the stack, a first bump disposed at least on a portion of the first external electrode on the first main surface, and a second bump disposed at least on a portion of the second external electrode on the first main surface. The first bump and the second bump each have a porosity greater than or equal to about 5% and less than or equal to about 40%.

A chip electronic component, comprising:
- a stack including a plurality of ceramic layers that are stacked and a plurality of inner electrodes stacked on the plurality of ceramic layers, the stack including:
- a first main surface and a second main surface opposed each other in a thickness direction of the stack;
- a first lateral surface and a second lateral surface opposed each other in a width direction of the stack perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the thickness direction;
- and
- a first end surface and a second end surface opposed each other in a length direction of the stack perpendicular to the thickness direction and the width direction;
- a first external electrode disposed at least on the first end surface and the first main surface of the stack;
- a second external electrode disposed at least on the second end surface and the first main surface of the stack;
- a first bump electrically connected to the first external electrode;
- and
- a second bump electrically connected to the second external electrode;
- wherein
- the first bump is disposed at least on a portion of the first external electrode on the first main surface;
- the second bump is disposed at least on a portion of the second external electrode on the first main surface;
- the first bump includes a portion that is in contact with the first external electrode;
- the second bump includes a portion that is in contact with the second external electrode;
- and
- the first bump and the second bump each have a porosity greater than or equal to about 5% and less than or equal to about 40%.
