MULTILAYER CERAMIC ELECTRONIC COMPONENT AND METHOD OF FABRICATING THE SAME

摘要

There are provided a multilayer ceramic electronic component, and a method of fabricating the same. The multilayer ceramic electronic component includes: a ceramic main body including a dielectric layer; first and second internal electrodes disposed to face each other within the ceramic main body; and a first external electrode and a second external electrode, wherein the first and second external electrodes include a conductive metal and glass, and when at least one of the first and second external electrodes is divided into three equal parts in a thickness direction, an area of the glass in a central part thereof is 35% to 80% of the total area of the central part. A multilayer ceramic electronic component having improved reliability may be implemented by enhancing chip air-tightness.
