Abstract:
1. An electronic component comprising an electronic component body having an external electrode thereon, the external electrode comprising a first sintered electrode layer and a second sintered electrode layer disposed thereon, the first and second sintered electrode layers comprising different metals, wherein the first sintered electrode layer comprises a first borosilicate glass containing an alkali metal, the first borosilicate glass containing 85% to 95% by weight of silicon and 0.5% to 1.5% by weight of the alkali metal based on 100% by weight of all elements other than boron therein according to analysis with a wavelength dispersive X-ray microanalyzer; and the second sintered electrode layer comprises a second borosilicate glass containing an alkali metal, the second borosilicate glass containing 65% to 80% by weight of silicon and 3.5% to 8.0% by weight of the alkali metal based on 100% by weight of all elements other than boron therein according to analysis with a wavelength dispersive X-ray microanalyzer.
