Abstract:
A solid electrolytic capacitor comprising:a capacitor element including an element body and a conductive wire extending therefrom; a first electrode electrically connected to the element body; a second electrode electrically connected to the conductive wire; a conductive bolster bar; and a resin package integrally covering the capacitor element, the first electrode and the second electrode; wherein each of the first electrode and the second electrode comprises a conductive plate having a lower surface exposed at a lower surface of the resin package for serving as a terminal surface, the first electrode having an upper surface to which the element body is connected, the first electrode supporting the element body without relying on an additional supporting member, the second electrode having an upper surface to which the conductive wire is connected via the conductive bolster bar, the second electrode being spaced away from the element body in a direction in which the conductive wire extends.
