Claim Text:
1. A multilayer ceramic capacitor comprising: a ceramic body having a plurality of dielectric layers stacked therein; an active part including a plurality of first and second internal electrodes alternately exposed through end surfaces of the ceramic body, respectively, each of the dielectric layers being interposed between the plurality of first and second electrodes; upper and lower cover layers disposed on upper and lower surfaces of the active part, respectively; and first and second external electrodes covering side surfaces of the ceramic body, respectively, wherein when a thickness of the upper or lower cover layer is defined as C, a margin between the active part and a side surface of the ceramic body in a width direction is defined as M, a cross-sectional area of the ceramic body in a width-thickness direction is defined as Ac, and a cross-sectional area of the active part in the width-thickness direction, in which the first and second internal electrodes are overlapped with each other in a thickness direction, is defined as Aa, 1.826≦C/M≦4.686, and 0.2142≦Aa/Ac≦0.4911.
