ELECTRONIC COMPONENT AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SAME

摘要

The present invention provides an electronic component in which the progress of corrosion caused by moisture intrusion through an electrode pattern extending inwardly from an edge connecting a side and one of main surfaces of a substrate rarely occurs and, therefore, deterioration of a characteristic rarely occurs with time. An electronic component (1) includes, on the first main surface (2) of the substrate, the first electrode pattern (3) extending inwardly from an edge connecting the side (2c) of the substrate (2) and the first main surface (2a) of the substrate (2), the second electrode pattern (4) that is opposite the end (3a) of the first electrode pattern (3) through the gap (G), and the third electrode pattern (5) that is disposed on the first electrode pattern (3) and the second electrode pattern (4) such that it covers the gap (G). The third electrode pattern (5) is formed from a metal film that is highly resistant to corrosion, the corrosion resistance of which is superior to that of metal films forming the first electrode pattern (3) and the second electrode pattern (4).
