Patent ID: 6860954

Claim:
A method for mounting multilayered ceramic capacitors on a circuit board, wherein each capacitor includes a body having dielectric layers formed of a dielectric ceramic material and internal electrode layers and a pair of external terminal electrodes formed on two sides of the body, the dielectric layers and the internal electrode layers being stacked alternately in the body and the internal electrode layers being connected in parallel to the external terminal electrodes in an alternate manner, the method comprising the steps of: (a) preparing the circuit board having a front and a back surface on which lands for mounting the capacitors thereon are formed at substantially plane-symmetrical positions, wherein every two lands disposed at their substantially plane-symmetrical positions are connected to each other; (b) mounting the capacitors on the lands of the front and the back surface to cancel out vibrations generated from the capacitors; and (c) electrically coupling the external terminal electrodes to the lands.
