Patent ID: 7277271

Claim:
A solid electrolytic capacitor comprising: a capacitor element having an anode part and a cathode part; a cathode frame coupled to the cathode part; a first anode frame and a second anode frame, each coupled to the anode part and provided at opposite sides of the cathode frame; a cathode terminal coupled to the cathode frame; a first anode terminal coupled to the first anode frame; a second anode terminal coupled to the second anode frame; and coating resin covering the capacitor element, the coating resin exposing a bottom surface which is used as mounting surfaces for the first and second anode terminals and the cathode terminal; wherein the solid electrolytic capacitor has a lengthwise direction connecting between the first anode terminal and the second anode terminal, and a widthwise direction crossing the lengthwise direction; wherein the first and second anode terminals have a pair of first flat parts at a given height above a bottom surface of the first and second anode terminals, the first flat parts being located at opposite ends of the widthwise direction; wherein the first and second anode frames are respectively coupled to the pair of the first flat parts; wherein the cathode terminal is located at a central part of the lengthwise direction, and has a second flat part at a given height above a bottom surface of the cathode terminal; wherein the cathode frame is coupled to the second flat part; and wherein the first flat part and the second flat part are covered with the coating resin.
