Abstract
An electronic component includes a multilayer body including inner electrodes and dielectric layers that are alternately stacked, and outer electrodes that are electrically connected to the inner electrodes. The multilayer body includes first and second main surfaces opposite each other in a stacking direction, first and second side surfaces opposite each other in a width direction, and first and second end surfaces opposite each other in a length direction. At least one of the outer electrodes is located on at least one of the first side surface or the second side surface of the multilayer body and is directly connected to the inner electrodes at positions spaced away from the at least one of the first side surface or the second side surface toward the inside of the multilayer body.
Claims17
An electronic component comprising:
- a multilayer body including a plurality of inner electrodes and a plurality of dielectric layers that are alternately stacked;
- and
- a plurality of outer electrodes that are electrically connected to the plurality of inner electrodes;
- wherein
- the multilayer body includes a first main surface and a second main surface that are opposite to each other in a stacking direction, a first side surface and a second side surface that are opposite to each other in a width direction perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the stacking direction, and a first end surface and a second end surface that are opposite to each other in a length direction perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the stacking direction and the width direction;
- at least one of the plurality of outer electrodes is located on at least one of the first side surface or the second side surface of the multilayer body and is directly connected to the plurality of inner electrodes at positions spaced away from the at least one of the first side surface or the second side surface toward an inside of the multilayer body;
- and
- the at least one of the plurality of outer electrodes includes a portion that overlaps with the at least one of the first side surface or the second side surface of the multilayer body when viewed from the stacking direction.
