Abstract:
1. A solid electrolytic capacitor comprising: a capacitor element including an anode part that is placed to at least one end part of an anode body including linear, foil-like, or plate-like valve metal and a cathode part that is placed in a region separated from the anode part by insulating resin; an electrode substrate including an electrode terminal for element connection that is formed to one surface and electrically connected to the anode part or the cathode part of the capacitor element, an electrode terminal of a mounting electrode side that is formed to another surface and electrically connected to an electrode terminal of a circuit substrate, and a connection part that electrically connects the electrode terminal for element connection and the electrode terminal of the mounting electrode side; and a covering member that covers the capacitor element, wherein a first recessed part is formed to a side surface that is placed in a first direction of the electrode substrate, and the first recessed part is covered with a conductive member so that the first recessed part is electrically connected to the electrode terminal of the mounting electrode side or the electrode terminal for element connection, and the electrode terminal for element connection extends to an end surface of the covering member at least along with the first direction and covers an upper part of the first recessed part, and a gas escape gap is formed between the electrode terminal for element connection and the covering member above the first recessed part, and gas escapes through the gas escape gap at the end surface of the covering member above the first recessed part from a conductive adhesive that connects the anode part or the cathode part of the capacitor element with the electrode terminal for element connection.
