  • Publication number: 20230402228
    Abstract: An electronic device includes: a ceramic element including a first electrode portion and a second electrode portion; a first metal terminal including a first external connection portion and a first electrode connection portion connected to the first electrode portion through solder; and a second metal terminal including a second external connection portion and a second electrode connection portion connected to the second electrode portion through solder. The first electrode connection portion includes a first solder stopper formed by undulation of at least a part of a facing surface of the first electrode connection portion facing the first electrode portion to control a range of an adhesion region of solder to the first electrode portion. The second electrode connection portion includes a second solder stopper that is formed by undulation of at least a part of a facing surface of the second electrode connection portion facing the second electrode portion.

  • Publication number: 20230064506
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a case, a ceramic element, a first metal terminal, and a second metal terminal. The case includes a recess and a case lower surface facing opposite to its opening. The ceramic element is disposed in the recess and includes first and second main surfaces opposing to each other, a first electrode portion formed on the first main surface, and a second electrode portion formed on the second main surface. The first metal terminal includes a first mounting portion disposed on the case lower surface and being substantially parallel to the first and second main surfaces and a first electrode connection portion connected to the first electrode portion. The second metal terminal includes a second mounting portion disposed on the case lower surface and being substantially parallel to the first and second main surfaces and a second electrode connection portion connected to the second electrode portion.
