Abstract:
1. A multilayer capacitor comprising: a dielectric body; and a first external electrode and a second external electrode formed on the dielectric body, the dielectric body including: an internal electrode layered product in which a first internal electrode and a second internal electrode being opposite to each other are stacked via a dielectric therebetween; a first dielectric layered product and a second dielectric layered product interposing the internal electrode layered product from both sides thereof in a stacking direction; a first body principal face and a second body principal face being opposite to each other in the stacking direction; a first body lateral face and a second body lateral face being opposite to each other and connecting between the first body principal face and the second body principal face; and a first body end face and a second body end face from which the first internal electrode and the second internal electrode are extracted in respectively opposite directions, wherein the first dielectric layered product including the first body principal face is formed to be thicker than the second dielectric layered product including the second body principal face in the stacking direction and wherein: the first external electrode and the second external electrode are formed at least on the first body end face and the second body end face and connected to the first internal electrode and the second internal electrode, respectively and extend only to the first body principal face from the first body end face and the second body end face, or the first external electrode and the second external electrode extend at least to the first body principal face from the first body end face and the second body end face and extend also to at least one of the second body principal face, the first body lateral face, and the second body lateral face, a length of each of portions extended to the first body principal face is larger than a length of the portions extended to at least one of the second body principal face, the first body lateral face, and the second body lateral face, in a direction in which the first body end face and the second body end face are opposed, each of the portions extended to the first body principal face contains ceramic powder, and a portion formed on the first body end face and a portion formed on the second body end face contains less ceramic powder than each of the portions extended to the first body principal face, or the portion formed on the first body end face and the portion formed on the second body end face contains no ceramic powder.
