Abstract: A component assembly that can be easily built in a main substrate with high accuracy is formed such that a glass transition temperature of a built-in-component layer of an assembly substrate in which multiple capacitors are embedded is higher than a glass transition temperature of a built-in-component layer of a built-in-component substrate. Thus, thermal deformation of the component assembly is prevented when the built-in-component substrate in which the component assembly is built is heated during reflow, for example. The component assembly can thus be highly accurately built in the built-in-component substrate. Moreover, when the component assembly in which the multiple capacitors are embedded is built in the built-in-component substrate, electrode pads of the component assembly in which the multiple capacitors are embedded can be electrically connected to wiring layers of the built-in-component substrate by soldering despite the variation in height among the capacitors.

Abstract: In a power supply apparatus that supplies direct current power to a load with a power supply unit, since a load power supply current is detected by a current detector from a voltage between both ends of a through electrode of a three-terminal capacitor provided on a power feed line extending from a power supply unit to a load, the three-terminal capacitor serving as a filter to reduce ripple noise can be used also as a detection resistor for detecting the load power supply current. Accordingly, it is possible to detect the load power supply current with a simple configuration that does not require a resistance element to detect the load power supply current, unlike in the related art. Consequently, it is not necessary to ensure an area where the resistance element for current detection can be mounted to reduce a power supply apparatus in size.
