Abstract: A method of manufacturing a solid electrolytic capacitor includes steps (a) to (d). The step (a) forms at least two punched apertures in a metal plate, thereby forming a rung section between adjacent two of the punched apertures, the rung section having surfaces as a pair appearing as a result of formation of the punched apertures. The step (b) cuts the rung section out of the metal plate to form a pad member, the length of the rung section corresponding to a distance between the surfaces being determined to be the height of the pad member. The step (c) mounts the pad member on an anode terminal such that one of the surfaces faces the anode terminal. The step (d) electrically connects an anode section of a capacitor element to the other of the surfaces and electrically connects a cathode section of the capacitor element to the cathode terminal.

Abstract: A solid electrolytic capacitor according to the present invention includes a solid electrolyte type capacitor element including a dielectric layer intervening between an anode section and a cathode section, an anode terminal connected electrically to the anode section of the capacitor element through a pad member, and a cathode terminal connected electrically to the cathode section of the capacitor element. Here, on facing surfaces of the pad member and the anode terminal, a joint part which joins the pad member and the anode terminal electrically is formed at a position adjacent to a first lateral surface of the pad member located on the cathode terminal side, and a second lateral surface of the pad member on the opposite side to the first lateral surface and a partial area of a lateral end surface of the anode terminal are flush with each other.
