PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide: a large-capacitance multilayer ceramic electronic component having improved withstand voltage characteristics and excellent reliability; and a manufacturing method thereof.SOLUTION: There are provided a multilayer ceramic electronic component and a manufacturing method thereof, the multilayer ceramic electronic component including: a ceramic body including dielectric layers; a plurality of internal electrodes facing each other across the dielectric layers in the ceramic body; and external electrodes electrically connected to the plurality of internal electrodes. If te denotes the thickness of the internal electrodes, then 0.1 μm≤te≤0.5 μm is satisfied. In a cross-section of the ceramic body taken in length and thickness directions (L-T), cut through a central portion of the ceramic body in a width W direction, if Tc denotes the length, in the length direction, of a central portion of an internal electrode grain closest to a disconnected portion of the internal electrode, and T1 denotes the length in the length direction at a point 25% above or below the central portion of the grain in the thickness direction of the internal electrode, then 0.7≤T1/Tc≤1.3 is satisfied. |
