Abstract:
1. A multi-layer ceramic capacitor, comprising a plurality of dielectric sheets, wherein each dielectric sheet comprises a first external electrode, a first internal electrode, a second external electrode, and a second internal electrode printed on a cross section thereof, the first internal electrode comprising one or more protrusions and joined to the first external electrode by way of an interposed dielectric portion, the second external electrode joined as a single body to the first internal electrode, and the second internal electrode joined to the first internal electrode by way of an interposed dielectric portion positioned in a space defined by the protrusions, and wherein the dielectric sheets are stacked alternately in a symmetrical manner, such that, for two adjacently stacked dielectric sheets, the first external electrode of one of the two dielectric sheets is electrically connected with the second external electrode of the other of the two dielectric sheets, and the protrusions of the first internal electrode of one of the two dielectric sheets are electrically connected with the second internal electrodes of the other of the two dielectric sheets.
