Monolithic capacitor

摘要

A monolithic capacitor includes a laminated body including stacked dielectric layers and substantially in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, and including a first surface being a mounting surface, a second surface opposite to the first surface, opposing third and fourth surfaces orthogonal to the first and second surfaces, and opposing fifth and sixth surfaces orthogonal to the first to fourth surfaces; capacitor electrodes disposed in the laminated body and each including a capacitive portion and a lead portion extending therefrom to at least one surface of the laminated body, the capacitive portions facing each other with dielectric layers interposed therebetween; and first and second outer electrodes disposed on at least one surface of the laminated body and connected to the lead portions. A gap between the first surface and the capacitive portions is greater than a gap between the second surface and the capacitive portions.

1. A monolithic capacitor comprising:
a laminated body including a plurality of dielectric layers and being in or substantially in a shape of a rectangular parallelepiped including six surfaces, the laminated body including a first surface defining a mounting surface, a second surface opposite to the first surface, a third surface and a fourth surface orthogonal or substantially orthogonal to the first surface and the second surface and opposite to each other, and a fifth surface and a sixth surface orthogonal or substantially orthogonal to each of the first surface through the fourth surface and opposite to each other; a plurality of capacitor electrodes disposed in the laminated body, the capacitor electrodes each including a capacitive portion and a lead portion extending outward from the capacitive portion to at least one of the surfaces of the laminated body, the capacitive portions facing each other with each of the dielectric layers interposed between adjacent ones of the capacitive portions; and a first outer electrode and a second outer electrode disposed on at least one of the surfaces of the laminated body and connected to the lead portions, wherein an inequality G1>G2 is satisfied, where G1 is a gap dimension between the first surface and the capacitive portions and G2 is a gap dimension between the second surface and the capacitive portions; G1−G2 is at least about 10 μm; the first outer electrode extends from the first surface to the fifth surface, and the second outer electrode extends from the first surface to the sixth surface; and a height dimension of the first outer electrode along the fifth surface and a height dimension of the second outer electrode along the sixth surface are smaller than the gap dimension G1 between the first surface and the capacitive portions.
