  • Publication number: 20240120150
    Abstract: In a chip type capacitor formed by attaching a seat plate to a capacitor, generation of voids or cracks due to flux gas generated at the time of soldering is suppressed. When providing auxiliary terminals for increasing the soldering strength on a seat plate for chipping, which enables a lead same direction type capacitor to be surface mounted, a gas release groove, preferably formed as a slit to release flux gas generated at the time of soldering, is formed on each of the auxiliary terminals.
