Claim 20:
21. A multilayer ceramic electronic component comprising:
a ceramic body including a laminate body including first and second surfaces opposing each other in a first direction, third and fourth surfaces opposing each other in a second direction, and fifth and sixth surfaces opposing each other in a third direction and having a first internal electrode and a second internal electrode stacked in the third direction with a dielectric layer interposed therebetween, the first internal electrode extending from the first surface of the laminate body and the second internal electrode extending from the second surface of the laminate body;
a first connection portion including a first lead electrode connected to the first internal electrode, and a first ceramic layer covering the first lead electrode and being in contact with the ceramic body; and
a second connection portion including a second lead electrode connected to the second internal electrode, and a second ceramic layer covering the second lead electrode and being in contact with the ceramic body,
wherein the first lead electrode includes one end led out to one surface of the first connection portion, and the second lead electrode includes one end led out to one surface of the second connection portion,
the first ceramic layer is in contact with the first surface of the laminate body,
the second ceramic layer is in contact with the second surface of the laminate body,
a maximum value of a width of the first lead electrode and/or the second lead electrode in the second direction is smaller than a maximum value of a width of the ceramic body in the second direction, and
a maximum value of a height of the first lead electrode and/or the second lead electrode in the third direction is smaller than a maximum value of a height of the ceramic body in the third direction.
