Abstract
A multilayer ceramic capacitor includes a multilayer body including dielectric layers and internal electrodes alternately laminated therein, and two end surfaces opposing each other in a length direction, and two side surfaces opposing each other in a width direction, and two external electrodes respectively on the two end surfaces of the multilayer body. At least one of two opposed main surfaces of the multilayer ceramic capacitor includes raised portions provided respectively on one side and another side with a middle portion of the main surface interposed therebetween. The raised portions are each raised to become thicker in the lamination direction from the middle portion toward an outer periphery of the main surface.

A multilayer ceramic capacitor comprising:
- a multilayer body including a plurality of dielectric layers and a plurality of internal electrodes alternately laminated in a layered manner therein, and two end surfaces opposing each other in a length direction which intersects a lamination direction, and two side surfaces opposing each other in a width direction which intersects the lamination direction and the length direction;
- and
- two external electrodes respectively on the two end surfaces of the multilayer body;
- wherein
- at least one of two opposed main surfaces of the multilayer ceramic capacitor in the lamination direction includes raised portions respectively on one side and another side with a middle portion of the main surface interposed therebetween;
- and
- each of the raised portions becomes thicker in the lamination direction from the middle portion toward an outer periphery of the main surface.
