Abstract
A multilayer capacitor array 1 comprises a capacitor element body 2 having first, second, third, and fourth inner electrodes 13 to 16, and first to fourth terminal electrodes 3 to 6 disposed on the outer surface of the capacitor element body 2 and respectively connected to the inner electrodes 13 to 16. The first and second inner electrodes 13, 14 form a first capacitor section C1, while the third and fourth inner electrodes 15, 16 form a second capacitor section C2. The multilayer capacitor array 1 is mounted to a circuit board such that the first and third terminal electrodes 3, 5 are connected to first leads 22, 23, while the second and fourth terminal electrodes 4, 6 are connected to a second lead 24.
