Patent number: 7936554Abstract: In a monolithic ceramic capacitor, the size of end surfaces of a capacitor body in a two-dimensional surface in which ceramic layers extend is greater than the size of side surfaces in the two-dimensional surface in which the ceramic layers extend. External terminal electrodes include a resistive component. In each of first to fourth internal electrodes, a width-direction size of a lead-out portion is less than a width-direction size of a capacitance portion. The lead-out portions of the first and third internal electrodes and the lead-out portions of the second and fourth internal electrodes are arranged so as to partially overlap each other or not to overlap each other.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2008Date of Patent: May 3, 2011Assignee: Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hiroto Itamura, Masaaki Taniguchi, Yoshio Kawaguchi

Patent number: 7808770Abstract: In an LW-reverse-type monolithic ceramic capacitor including external terminal electrodes each including a resistance component, internal electrodes include nickel or a nickel alloy, and the external terminal electrodes each include a first layer, a second layer provided on the first layer, and a third layer provided on the second layer. The first layer has a wrap-around portion extending from an end surface to principal surfaces and side surfaces of a capacitor main body, and contains a glass component and a compound oxide that reacts with Ni or the Ni alloy. The second layer covers the first layer such that the edge of the wrap-around portion of the first layer remains exposed, and contains a metal. The third layer covers the edge of the wrap-around portion of the first layer and the second layer, and is formed by plating.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2008Date of Patent: October 5, 2010Assignee: Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hiroto Itamura, Masaaki Taniguchi, Yoshio Kawaguchi
