Abstract: To reduce the chip size of a chip-type electronic component including a capacitor and an inductor. A chip-type electronic component includes a capacitor constituted by a lower electrode pattern, an upper electrode pattern, and an insulating layer, an insulating layer covering the capacitor, and an inductor pattern disposed on the insulating layer. The inductor pattern has a section overlapping the capacitor, whereby an auxiliary capacitor is added. The inductor pattern is thus made to partly overlap the capacitor, so that a larger inductance can be obtained with a small chip size. In addition, characteristics can also be improved by auxiliary capacitance.

Abstract: An electronic component has: a conductor layer M1 formed on a substrate and including lower electrodes of a capacitor; a dielectric film covering the top and side surfaces of each of the lower electrodes; upper electrodes of the capacitor which are formed on the top surfaces of the respective lower electrodes through the dielectric film; and an adhesive film disposed between the dielectric film and the top and side surfaces of each of the lower electrodes. The adhesive film is thus disposed between the dielectric film and the top and side surfaces of each of the lower electrodes.

Abstract: To prevent interfacial peeling due to the stress of an insulating layer in a capacitor-inductor integrated electronic component having three or more conductor layers. An electronic component includes: a conductor layer M1 including a conductor pattern constituting an inductor; a conductor pattern overlapping a part of the conductor pattern through a dielectric film; an insulating layer covering the conductor layer M1 and conductor pattern; a conductor layer M2 provided on the insulating layer and including a conductor pattern constituting the inductor; and an insulating layer covering the conductor layer M2. The conductor layer M2 is formed to be branching from or independently of the conductor pattern and further includes a dummy pattern overlapping the conductor pattern. This prevents the stress of the insulating layer from being directly applied to the conductor pattern to thereby prevent peeling at the interface between the conductor layer M1 and the dielectric film.

Abstract: An electronic component includes: a conductive pattern provided on the main surface of a substrate and constituting a lower electrode; a dielectric film that covers top and side surfaces of the conductive pattern; and a conductive pattern stacked on the top surface of the conductive pattern through the dielectric film and constituting an upper electrode. A part of the dielectric film that is parallel to the main surface of the substrate is removed at least partly. Partially removing a part of the dielectric film that is parallel to the main surface of the substrate allows stress relaxation. This prevents peeling at the interface between the lower electrode and the dielectric film.
