Abstract:
1. An electronic component comprising: an insulating substrate including a front surface, a back surface and a side surface connecting the front surface with the back surface, a pair of terminal electrodes that are placed in end regions opposed each other within the insulating substrate, and on the front and back surfaces and the side surface; a circuit element including a resistor member and/or a dielectric member connected to the pair of terminal electrodes, being placed on one surface of the insulating substrate; a protective layer protecting the resistor member and/or the dielectric member; an auxiliary electrode being placed with covering the interface between the protective layer and the terminal electrode and connecting the terminal electrode; and a plated layer being placed on the surfaces of the terminal electrode and the auxiliary electrode, wherein the interface between the protective layer and the terminal electrode is placed in one of the side and back surfaces of the insulating substrate.
