Abstract
In an embodiment, a multilayer ceramic capacitor 10 is formed in such a way that a first face f1 of a capacitor body 11 has a concave shape and a first part 12a of a first external electrode 12 contacts the concave-shaped first face f1, and that a second face f2 of the capacitor body 11 has a concave shape and a first part 13a of a second external electrode 13 contacts the concave-shaped second face f2.
Claims6
A multilayer ceramic capacitor, comprising:
- (1) a capacitor body having a first face and a second face that are facing each other in a length direction, a third face and a fourth face that are facing each other in a width direction, and a fifth face and a sixth face that are facing each other in a height direction, as well as a built-in capacitive part constituted by multiple first internal electrode layers and multiple second internal electrode layers stacked alternately with dielectric layers in between;
- (2) a first external electrode having a first part along the first face, and a second part along the fifth face, of the capacitor body, where ends of the multiple first internal electrode layers are connected to the first part, respectively;
- and
- (3) a second external electrode having a first part along the second face, and a second part along the fifth face, of the capacitor body, where ends of the multiple second internal electrode layers are connected to the first part, respectively;
- wherein the first face of the capacitor body has a concave shape and the first part of the first external electrode contacts the first face of the capacitor body;
- and
- wherein while the second face of the capacitor body has a concave shape and the first part of the second external electrode contacts the second face of the capacitor body.
