Chip capacitor

摘要

A capacitor element has on its outer surface a cathode layer with a flat bottom surface, and also a tantalum lead extending outward from its one end. One of opposing major surfaces of a flat cathode terminal is located beneath and in parallel with the bottom surface of the cathode layer. They are electrically connected with each other. One of opposing major surfaces of a flat anode terminal is located substantially in the same plane as the one major surface of the cathode terminal and is electrically connected to the tantalum lead of the capacitor element. The capacitor element, the anode terminal and the cathode terminal are encapsulated with portions of the other major surfaces of the cathode and anode terminals left exposed.
