PURPOSE:To enable setting arbitrarily the thickness of an external electrode in each part by forming the external electrode through causing a conductive pattern to adhere so that the pattern is divided according to the outer peripheral face side and end face side of a component body. CONSTITUTION:Both end faces of a capacitor element 4 are masked 15 so that conductive paste is prevented from adhering thereto, and the conductive paste 8 is transferred to the outer peripheral face of the capacitor element 4. In this case, the thickness of the conductive paste 8 is thinned as much as possible. After the transfer, the conductive paste 8, 8 having adhered to the capacitor element 4 is dried, then masking 15, 15 is peeled off, and the predetermined quantity of the conductive paste 8 is caused to adhere to both end faces of the capacitor element 4 and to sinter finally to form external electrodes 3, 3. In this manner, the thickness of the external electrode 3 can arbitrarily be set. |
