Abstract:
1. An electronic component comprising: a laminate including a plurality of substantially rectangular insulating layers laminated to each other in a lamination direction, each of which includes a first side and a second side extending in a first direction and a third side and a fourth side extending in a second direction, the first direction and the second direction both being perpendicular to the lamination direction; a first capacitor conductor provided on the plurality of insulating layers and including a first exposed portion exposed between the insulating layers at a surface of the laminate including the first side, the third side, and the fourth side; a second capacitor conductor provided on the plurality of the insulating layers and including a second exposed portion exposed between the insulating layers at a surface of the laminate including the second side, the third side, and the fourth side; and a first external electrode and a second external electrode arranged on the laminate so as to cover the first exposed portion and the second exposed portion, respectively; wherein a maximum value of a width in the first direction of the first capacitor conductor in a second region which is defined between the second side and a second straight line obtained by connecting edges of the second external electrode on the third side and the fourth side located closest to the first side is greater than a maximum value of a width in the first direction of the first capacitor conductor in a third region which is defined between the second straight line and a first straight line obtained by connecting edges of the first external electrode on the third side and the fourth side located closest to the second side.
