Multilayer ceramic capacitor including internal electrode layers including first, second, and third regions including different coverages

A multilayer ceramic capacitor comprising:

• a multilayer body including a plurality of dielectric layers and a plurality of internal electrode layers that are laminated, the multilayer body further including a first main surface and a second main surface that are opposed to each other in a lamination direction, a first lateral surface and a second lateral surface that are opposed to each other in a width direction orthogonal or substantially orthogonal to the lamination direction, and a first end surface and a second end surface that are opposed to each other in a length direction orthogonal or substantially orthogonal to the lamination direction and the width direction;
• and
• external electrodes that are respectively provided on the first end surface and the second end surface and connected to the plurality of internal electrode layers;
• wherein
• the plurality of internal electrode layers include a first region, a second region, and a third region respectively including different coverages;
• the first region includes a larger coverage than the second region;
• the first region is connected to a corresponding one of the external electrodes;
• the third region is provided between the first region and the second region;
• and
• the third region includes a smaller coverage than the first region and the second region.
