Patent ID: 7933113

Claim:
A laminated ceramic capacitor comprising: a laminate having a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape including a first principal surface, a second principal surface, a first end surface, a second end surface, a first side surface, and a second side surface, the first and second end surfaces and the first and second side surfaces being connected to the first and second principal surfaces, and including a plurality of stacked insulating layers and a plurality of internal electrodes that extend between the insulating layers, the plurality of internal electrodes having end portions exposed at the first or second end surface, the end portions being insulated from each other; external electrodes disposed on the first and second end surfaces so as to connect the exposed end portions of the internal electrodes to each other and being substantially made of plating deposits; and thick end electrodes including metal particles and a glass frit, which are electrically connected to the external electrodes, and which are disposed over edge portions of the first and second principal surfaces and first and second side surfaces of the laminate, the edge portions being adjacent to the first and second end surfaces of the laminate; wherein the thick end electrodes do not extend onto the first and second end surfaces of the laminate.
