Claim 18:
19. A multilayer capacitor comprising:
a body including a capacitance region in which at least one first internal electrode and at least one second internal electrode are alternately stacked on each other interposing at least one dielectric layer therebetween in a first direction; and
first and second external electrodes disposed on the body and spaced apart from each other to be respectively connected to the at least one first internal electrode and the at least one second internal electrode in a second direction,
wherein minimum widths of the at least one first internal electrode and the at least one second internal electrode disposed in a middle portion of the body are smaller than minimum widths of the at least one first internal electrode and the at least one second internal electrode disposed in a peripheral portion of the body in the first direction,
the at least one first internal electrode and the at least one second internal electrode respectively include recession regions overlapping each other in the first direction, and
the body further includes:
a first dummy electrode disposed in the recession region of the at least one first internal electrode and spaced apart from the at least one first internal electrode; and
a second dummy electrode disposed in the recession region of the at least one second internal electrode and spaced apart from the at least one second internal electrode.
