Abstract:
1. An electronic component with terminal strips, which comprises an electronic component having external electrodes on its opposing ends, as well as a terminal strip joined to each of the external electrodes, and which is configured to mount the electronic component onto a board or other mating part by both terminal strips, wherein: each of the terminal strips has a plate-like joint being joined via a solder to an end face of each of the external electrodes, a plate-like leg continuing from the plate-like joint, a plate-like mounting part continuing from the plate-like leg, and two plate-like supports continuing from the plate-like leg; the two plate-like supports are formed by bending inwardly, as viewed from above, two plate-like parts projecting in a line-symmetrical manner with reference to a direction perpendicular to an axis of the electronic component, from both side edges of the plate-like leg as viewed in a direction of the axis of the electronic component, such that at least a tip of a thickness surface on the electronic component side of each plate-like part is positioned below the electronic component and in contact with a bottom face of the corresponding external electrode; and the electronic component is supported from below by at least the tips of the thickness surfaces on the electronic component sides of the four plate-like supports.
