(57) : A multi-layer electronic device is disclosed that comprises a ceramic layer, a first electrode layer, and a second elec - IN trode layer. The first electrode layer contains a first tab portion extending to the first lateral edge of the ceramic layer, the first elec - trode layer further defining a first cut-out region. The second electrode layer contains a second tab portion extending to the first lat - N eral edge of the ceramic layer, the second electrode layer further defining a second cut-out region. The first tab portion of the first 0 electrode layer is offset from the second tab portion of the second electrode layer in the longitudinal direction so that a first gap re - gion is formed within which the first tab portion does not overlap the second tab portion. Further, the first cut-out region at least par - .,. tially overlaps the second cut-out region.
