Patent ID: 8125760

Claim:
A multilayer capacitor comprising: a laminated body in which a first internal electrode and a second internal electrode are laminated as opposed to each other with a dielectric layer in between; a first terminal electrode disposed on one end side of the laminated body; and a second terminal electrode disposed on the other end side of the laminated body, wherein the first internal electrode comprises a plurality of types of first internal electrodes, and each type of first internal electrode includes a first main electrode portion, and a first lead portion extending from the first main electrode portion to one end of the laminated body and connected directly to the first terminal electrode, wherein the second internal electrode includes a plurality of second main electrode portions forming respective capacitance components with the respective types of first internal electrodes, an interconnection portion connecting between each pair of the second main electrode portions, and a second lead portion extending from one second main electrode portion out of the plurality of second main electrode portions to the other end of the laminated body and connected directly to the second terminal electrode, wherein positions of the first lead portions of the respective types of first internal electrodes are different from each other and distances from the first lead portions of the respective types of first internal electrodes to the second lead portion are different from each other, and wherein a width of the interconnection portion is smaller than a width of at least one second main electrode portion out of the plurality of second main electrode portions.
