Method of manufacturing a chip type electronic element

Abstract

A method of manufacturing a chip type electronic component includes the steps of forming a multilayer body including a major surface and a side surface by laminating a plurality of substrates and at least one internal electrode interposed between two of the substrates, forming a groove between the two substrates at the side surface of the multilayer body so as to expose an end of the at least one internal electrode, and making the side surface of the multilayer body rough by performing barrel polishing on the multilayer body, the barrel polishing being performed in a barrel pot in which water, media, an abrasive powder and the multilayer body are provided and forming an external electrode on the side surface of the multilayer body, the external electrode being connected to the end of the internal electrode exposed at the groove.
