Patent ID: 7342772

Claim:
A solid electrolytic capacitor comprising: a plurality of capacitor elements laminated together, each of the capacitor elements comprising: an anode body made of a valve metal and having an anode exposed portion; a dielectric oxide film formed on a surface of the anode body; a solid electrolyte layer formed on a surface of the dielectric oxide film; and a cathode layer formed on a surface of the solid electrolyte layer; an anode portion where the anode exposed portions of the capacitor elements are bonded together; a first conductive sheet having a predetermined shape such that a shape of at least a portion of the first conductive sheet corresponds to a shape of at least one of the plurality of capacitor elements, the first conductive sheet being disposed between lamination planes of the cathode layers of the capacitor elements; a cathode portion where the cathode layers of the capacitor elements are bonded together via the first conductive sheet; an anode terminal connected to the anode portion; a cathode terminal connected to the cathode portion; and a packaging resin layer coating the capacitor elements in such a manner that a part of the anode terminal and a part of the cathode terminal are exposed.
