Patent ID: 8861180

Claim:
A multilayer ceramic electronic component, comprising: a ceramic main body having internal electrodes laminated therein; and external electrodes formed on both ends of the ceramic main body in a length direction thereof, wherein each of the external electrodes includes a first layer formed on the ceramic main body and including a conductive metal, and a second layer formed on the first layer and including a conductive resin, and when Tc is a thickness of a cover layer of the ceramic main body, Te is a thickness of the internal electrode, Td is a distance between neighboring internal electrodes, L 1 is a length from either end of the ceramic main body in the length direction thereof in a region in which the cover layer of the ceramic main body adjoins a margin part of the ceramic main body in the length direction thereof to an end of the first layer formed on an upper surface or a lower surface of the ceramic main body, and Lm is a length of the margin part of the ceramic main body, Tc≦70 μm and L 1 <Lm+Tc×cot 50° are satisfied.
