Abstract:
A multilayer ceramic capacitor for three-dimensional mounting comprising:at least one ceramic layer formed in a rectangular shape;a first internal electrode having a rectangular first main portion extending along a longitudinal direction in a first face of the at least one ceramic layer and having a plurality of first leads extending from long sides of the first main portion to long sides of the at least one ceramic layer;a second internal electrode having a second main portion opposing against the first main portion of the first internal electrode via the at least one ceramic layer and located in a second face of the at least one ceramic layer opposite to the first face and having a plurality of second leads extending from long sides of the second main portion at positions different from the first leads provided at the first internal electrode to the long sides of the at least one ceramic layer;a rectangular parallelepiped shaped capacitor body comprised of a plurality of first internal electrodes and second internal electrodes stacked via the at least one ceramic layer so that a short side of at least one ceramic layer registers with a height direction of the capacitor body;first external electrodes formed at a top face and bottom face of the capacitor body and electrically connected to first leads positioned in the same lines along the stacking direction of the at least one ceramic layer;second external electrodes alternately formed with respect to the first external electrodes at the top face and bottom face of the capacitor body and electrically connected to second leads positioned in the same lines along the stacking direction of the at least one ceramic layer.
